  • Introductions
  • Discussion of overall goals of this SIG
  • How to organize this SIG?
    • Mostly relying on GitHub Projects to track progress
    • Anyone can volunteer/assign themselves to work on a task
    • Communications over GitHub/Slack preferred, email used until we can get everyone on Slack
  • How to advertise this SIG?
    • Would love industry partnerships to help maintain build recipes
    • Need some kind of incentive: faster benchmarks?
    • Ideally, every ML package will have both a Spack developer and a ML library developer willing to maintain that build recipe
  • Discussion of next steps moving forward
    • Need to decide what exactly we are willing to maintain
      • Which packages?
      • Which platforms?
      • Which versions?
    • Idea: only maintain the packages/platforms/versions we test in CI
    • Scope: only ML packages, not generic data analysis (numpy, pandas) or visualization (matplotlib) tools
  • Specific PRs in progress that need reviewing
