Hello all - note we will not turn people away for not registering.  
However, registering does help us keep the workshops more aligned with people’s timezones and interests in the future, as well as ensuring everyone can see the code of conduct before we start (and lets us know about interest in the workshop!).

The agenda for Wednesday June 10 is as follows:

**Day 1 Wednesday June 10, 2026 8AM-11:30AM Pacific Time**

- Opening remarks, agenda, code of conduct reminders, refreshers on the LSST survey strategy design process (8:00-8:20)
- The set of v5.3 opsims - what is it, what has changed, a high level overview of performance (8:20 - 9:00)
- Q/A (9:00-9:30)
- BREAK 9:30 - 10:00
- SCOC assessments by science area 10:00-11
- Q/A (11:00-11:30)

Zoom link posted by tomorrow.
