D. Raparia repoterd on the sensitivity of the window temperature vs.
distance from the last quad for the dumps of the linac, injection and 
extraction lines . There does not appear to be a problem, and the design 
will be finalized soon. At BNL particle tracking studies indicate that 
space charge and errors can combine to prodice beam growth. Results will 
be distributed soon. Also at BNL efforts are being made to reduce 
sextupole components from  the quads located near septums.

S. Kim reported on the HOM work progress. He noted that there is a need 
for large amounts of storage - ultimately ~ 100's of Gb. Galambos will 
asist in allieviating this (a new drive and tape storage). 

D. Jeon is proceding with the setup of the HOM beam breakup studies. Later,
it may be desirable to configure the code to run in parallel on the
alice cluster to do statistical analysis of expected cavity to cavity 
frequency and Q variations.

J. Galambos reported on the progress Brian Davis and Kathy Woody are making. 
Brain has completed an initial set of DTL corrector runs. Feedback has been 
recieved from LANL, and an iteration is being made. Kathy  has completed 
numerical sensitivities for longitudinal impedance calculations, and is 
working on a benchmark to an analytic example. Then an SNS case will be 
analyzed.

It was mentioned that the group meeting may not be needed during weeks when
the video conference is held (to avoid too much repitition). In this case, 
there were 3 similar meetings in less than a week.
