Also Present: 
Javier Hernandez, and Knut Olsen popped his head in to say hello....
Problems: 

None really, nothing major. There were a few Image Builder (IB) failures.

IB1 crashed at 00:48 local (Klaus H. re-started it).

IB4 crashed at 01:06 local (DJJ restarted it).

IB5 crashed at 01:41 local (DJJ restarted it).

IB2 crashed at 02:40 local (DJJ restarted it).

Also the Quick Reduce portal was down for a quite a long time. Finally, after searching through the equivalent literature of the Library of Congress, I found the relevant QR portal re-start instructions, and so from 01:05 local onwards, I had QR seeing/eliipticity data again.
