Minutes from the Last HDGeant4 Meeting

We went over the minutes from the meeting on February 23rd. At that meeting we discusses a plan of action to have our various software packages use a consistent scheme for assigning photon energy based on a given hit in a tagger counter, simulation and data, old reconstruction launches and new. Richard has already implemented many of the changes. See his email from February 26.

Review of recent issues and pull requests

We paged through the issue pages and the software help list. There were no reports of progress or discussion.
