| Instrument Reports at NIKUG Annual reviews - Jim has set up separate meetings this week and next if monthly meeting isn’t in this timeframe Scales is coming - Rosalie may need help with heritage scripts from other instruments Jim is still working on keeping computer support accountable, but continue to cc him on IT helpdesk tickets. Got to make sure that we get our effort reports in early/on time as NASA has extra rules for their money. GINGA discussion for future instruments. No ICD, but we have started utilizing it for more instruments DEIMOS, NIRES, etc.

1:31 | SSC Recap | Jim | Lots of discussion surrounding AO dev from the AO working group including promises about AO operations (e.g. fast and furious release) SCALES talk - arriving end of Jan, pre-ship review not yet scheduled DEIMOS detectors accepted despite CTE issues ZShooter schedule issue with HIRES removal and platform work. Discussion of Zshooter design and surprise over imager KASM/KOAM still a ways in the future LRIS2 happy with detectors QE and thickness, seems furthest along with CSU. Keck instrument suite renewal - future look at instruments KPF/HIRES stability discussion was interesting. Will KPF be stable enough to decommission HIRES? KPF still has issues with green CCR and read noise

2:18 | Words from John | John O. | John was at a board meeting today and joined late. Discussion of HIRES retirement without a hibernation period with a date TBD based on ZShooter PDR and how that evolves. Does Keck need a dedicated PRV person like NEID? Funding would be needed, is it a dedicated person necessary?
