      Conclusions / next steps
      - Attendance was limited, but important feedback and ideas received esp. from Ph.D. and postdocs.
      - Overall, general support for the proposal, but a number of steps and todos remain open
      - Plan to continue biweekly taskforce meetings, next meeting Thu, 22 September 11 am.
      - Exhibit the posters, evaluate mentimeter, devise a survey
      - Address open questions, e.g. DESY-wide event (see below) seminar on scientific computing, a.o.b.
      - Finalize recommendations, presentation and writeup.
      - Implement recommendations (already started with indico)

      Feedback from Beate
      - Meet once with the early career scientist board + potentially other youngsters.
      - Invite people from within Germany also regularly. I think this is good as it helps our role as hub. It can strengthen our connections to the universities.
      - As for DESY wide event, in fact the "TED talks" I am also discussing already with Christian Harringa. Freya and Beate witing a concept. Maybe it is best that we do this first and then several people can look at it and we iterate? I would suggest for the TF to focus more on the other aspects for now.
