====================================

The meeting agenda is available on indico:

analysis web-page
------------------
An analysis web-page has been set up. This is for collecting all
relevant material for the preliminary release and for the publication.

Independent analysis by H1 and comparison to H1 fit [arxiv:1709.07251]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The slides prepared by Daniel were shown. The general impression was
that the results are close to the results from XFitter and the
Oxford-code, although the uncertainties in the H1-analysis shown here
are a bit higher. One jet dataset is not yet included in the H1
analysis, which possibly can explain a part of the uncertainty
difference. This is going to be followed up for the publication.


Preliminary request
-------------------
All questions raised in the previous meeting one month ago were
answered. The material to be released is collected in a short note,
a draft of the note is attached to this indico page.
There was broad agreement to release the results for DIS. The
following decisions were taken:
 - on slide 17, it was decided NOT to apply the Q^2 cut the normalized
   jet data (i.e. to release as preliminary the plot on the right side).
 - various improvements to the figures were discussed, as summarized
   below.
 - the preliminary release is scheduled for 4.4.2018 at 10:00 in SR7a
   On that date we are going to have a final look at the improved figures.

Requests for figure updates collected so far
--------------------------------------------
The figures are discussed as they appear in the draft writeup.
Figure 1a:
   - remove the alpha_s number from the chi**2 fit
   - try to superimpose graphically the main alpha_s fit result
     (possibly using colors for exp,model,param)

Figure 1b:
   - prepare alternative version of this in different aspect ratio
     (different axis range?) such that it can be compared directly to the
     corresponding figure 65 from the HERAPDF2.0 paper
   - try with larger symbols

Fig 2-5:
   - move the "Q^2=10 GeV^2" label to a better place and use
     consistent font
   - try to have in addition PDF (comparison?) plots with linear x-scale
     (similar to fig 67 bottom in HERAPDF paper), to see better the
     high-x region.

Fig 6-9:
   - have thicker frames and axis ticks
