Agenda

1. Welcome
2. Review of NEST User Mailing List
3. Project team round
4. In-depth discussion
   • Positions of process-local nodes: How to correctly fetch positions of neurons in a MPI parallel setup.
     • slicing the NodeCollection is not necessary. The returned positions are process-local, the mapping to node-IDs has to then be inferred (may be done by slicing, or logic translation)
     • GetLocalNodes() is currently not available on the pynest level, but could be made available.
   • PyLint discussion on extra refactoring now required.
     • currently we lowered the fail-threshold for pylint (#3339) to allow merges to continue (e.g. here)
     • conclusion: create separate issues as follow-ups to raise the threshold up again.

Project team round

Here we discuss topics that need broader attention, for example questions that came up but are outside a single project's scope, larger planned changes/PRs that affect all teams or pending work that is blocked by external factors.

Go to the Project boards.
