2. Status update
- Questionnaire - ESFRI
WP5 sent a use case requirement questionnaire to all ESFRI partners. 11 unique use cases have filled in the questionnaire.
Three categories of questions were asked, namely data property, software, compute & storage.

- WP5 Use Case Requirement Workshop
The WP5 Use Case Requirements workshop was held on 16-17 April 2019 in Groningen, The Netherlands. There are more than 20 participants from WP5 partners and ESFRIs.

During the workshop, ESFRI partners gave short presentations regarding their research facilities and their computing/storage/network requirements. The results of the ESFRI survey were shown to the participants during the workshop. We also invited three speakers to talk about Virtual Observatory (VO) (UEDIN), EOSC service Functions-as-a-Service (Faas) (DESY), and Jupyter Notebook as an interface (JIVE). Several discussion sessions were held to discuss identified ESAP components and the priorities of implementing each of the services.

- M5.1 Report / Deliverable D5.1 (in progress)
The first milestone (M5.1) "workshop summary report" was sent to CNRS-LAPP. The report is basically the introduction section of WP5 first deliverable draft.

The draft of the first deliverable of WP5, D5.1 "Preliminary report on requirements for ESFRI science analysis use cases", has been distributed among ESFRIs that have filled in the questionnaire and workshop participants. After receiving their comments, we will distribute the deliverable to WP5 partners and other ESCAPE work package leaders for review.

The deadline of the deliverable is end of July. We will discuss the contents of the deliverable on 3-4 July in Amsterdam.

3. WP5/WP2 F2F meeting + Deliverable discussion (1-4 July)
The joint WP5/WP2 F2F meeting will be held on 1-3 July in Amsterdam. Registration is now open. When you click on registration, you will be redirected to Eventbrite to buy ticket. It costs 77 Euro, please complete the payment process for registration.
Ron Trompert from SURFsara has the information of who has already registered.
We will send out the F2F meeting agenda soon.

Zheng asked Dave regarding AAI development within VO. This is relevant to almost all work packages. Maybe we can have an AAI session during the F2F meeting to coordinate the effort.

Dave: Machine Learning application requires direct access to data

Matthias Fuessling - CTAO:
- hiring process and work plan is onging
- Contribute to WP2 regarding data preservation and metadata
- WP4, contribute to VO, provenance, metadata and multi-messenger, transit, and alert link to WP5
- Nanine for WP2 F2F meeting, someone for WP5

- WP5, functionality of archive
- F2F meeting, not decided yet, want to see agenda first

Johan Messchendorp - RuG:
- F2F meeting, yes, probably also with someone from RuG-CIT

- hiring not initiated yet
- working on WP5 T5.1 how to make data available together with CTA

The discussions we will have in July F2F meeting will serve as input for the second WP5 deliverable D5.2 "Detailed project plan".

5. Next videocon -  early september
