     * UMN physics listserv is retiring, so future working group mailing lists will be done through Google Groups: Shaul has already done this for extragalactic, data challenge, and imager.  Some bugs have been found.  Shaul can set this up for other WGs if needed.     * UMN physics listserv is retiring, so future working group mailing lists will be done through Google Groups: Shaul has already done this for extragalactic, data challenge, and imager.  Some bugs have been found.  Shaul can set this up for other WGs if needed.

-    * Roger is technology person at JPL.  Jeff and Roger plan to have offline discussion with different groups around the country - get them to augment what they have provided to S4 tech book with any material relevant to a space mission.  Jeff following up with NIST, Berkeley, GSFC folks, Roger to check in with McGill, Brad Johnson, Charles Lawrence, Peter Day. +    * Roger put together a review of relevant technologies: {{:private:cmb_probe_detectorsv2.pptx|Slides here}} 
-    * Roger put together a cliff notes of the S4 technology study {{:private:cmb_probe_detectorsv2.pptx|Slides here}}+    * Roger is technology person at JPL.  Jeff and Roger plan to have offline discussion with different groups around the country - get them to augment what they have provided to S4 tech book with any material relevant to a space mission.  Jeff following up with NIST, Berkeley, GSFC folks; Roger to check in with McGill, Brad Johnson, Charles Lawrence, Peter Day. 
 +    * The Inflation Probe should address some specific questions quickly: e.g., what detector technology to use above 800GHz?  Power dissipation?  How to get a community consensus on these questions?  Use S4 as a starting point, solicit input from teams working on these individual technologies, present this information again to the EC. 
 +    * In the spirit of transparency, need an opportunity for some back-and-forth: perhaps a open review by telecon for Roger and Jeff to present their results and get feedback.  
 +    * Keep in mind that this is a current snapshot showing we have a solid case fitting in the cost cap, not a formal technology selection - were this mission to fly 10-15 years from now it is likely to look very different technologically.  But important to have some baseline technology selection.
   * Update on NASA management of probes and expected deliverables (Shaul)   * Update on NASA management of probes and expected deliverables (Shaul)
     * {{:private:probe_studies_-_deliverables1.1.pptx|Deliverables1.1}}     * {{:private:probe_studies_-_deliverables1.1.pptx|Deliverables1.1}}
 +    * Entire slide package is also available on the wiki.
 +    * Study report is ~50 pages.  
 +    * Engineering Concept Definition Package: prepared by JPL.  This is only submitted to the decadal panel on request.  Primary use is for the Independent Cost Estimate.
 +    * Can we find out what tools/models will be used by SOMA (the independent cost estimators) ? Shaul will ask.  JPL has a number of models that can be used to check variance.
 +    * Independent Cost Estimate does not include pre-phase A technology maturation costs, but we should be careful about including too many low maturity technologies to avoid large cost penalties.
   * Imager WG Update (Shaul)   * Imager WG Update (Shaul)
 +    * first draft baseline imager (optics/focal plane + justification) targeted for end of July
