  * JPas to send AK beta and alpha as a function of S (calculated by BeamOptics). 
   * Stands.
  
 * Laser capture interface
  * KL: Should start a loop with CW and Oliver Jeremy
  * CW: Would like input on what is needed from the laser guys, especially since the tapered re-entrant part pokes 5cm inwards.
 * Beam transport
  * Update to Stage 1 lattice.
  * Working on the matching, bug in the code needs fixing.
  * Stage 2 vertical arc.
   * Can use the same arc lattice as for Stage 1.
   * May need to scale lengths of the quads to make sure the magnets are not superconducting.
  * Integration
   * Discussed questions from Simeon.
    * Specific details will be finalised after the design is frozen.
    * Can make the room bigger to accommodate the laser room.
  * Instrumentation 
   * AK to put JM and Alex Howard in touch.
 * pre-CDR outline
  * Copy points from the R&D plan on the wiki to the relevant sections in the pre-CDR outline.
 * R&D plan and schedule.
  * AK: No updates have been received yet.
 * A.O.B.
  * Date of the review will be finalised soon.
  * Time of the meeting will go back to 2pm from the 11th Feb.
