Agenda

Present: DH, DD, CW, NB, KS

Apologies:

PETSc meeting

Deadline is tomorrow.

DH and DD: To go FEniCS meeting in June in Oslo.

DH - PR #3497 Missing interpolate cases.

DD - PR #3476

Cofunction assignment is working for solve(Eq=Cofunction) and for Variational solvers. See Cofunction identity.

DD - Petsc issues MacOS

Petsc upstream fixed the MasOS issues related to CHACO and Openblas. However, firedrake install fails for petsc4py installation.

CW: This is hard. See my previous attempt at landing Cython 3. Ideally numpy 2.0 gets released first and this is really close to happening (matter of weeks).

DH: We build numpy. Can we attempt to use release candidate?

JB: TODO after break.

Merge PRs

Note that PRs put in this section should either be trivial or already have been reviewed. Discussion-worthy PRs should be separate agenda items.
