  2)
Proposal from HF/LFS PWG to include  the "Les Houches Accord" LHAPDF/LHAGlue tunes to STAR's PYTHIA8
     - supported by  Spin PWG
     - more info see e.g. hep-ph/0508110
     - S&C: no infrastructural issues foreseen in the inclusion in STAR's PYTHIA
     - LHAPDF comes in several tunes: PWGs are requested to discuss what tune(s) to be used.
        PWGs are then requested to carefully document this/those.

3) Proposal from the MTD group for special st_mtd dimuon production.
    - spefically targeted at J/psi physics.  
    - presented at 
last week's S&C Meeting
     direct link:  https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/system/files/20141008_MTD_SC.pdf
    - more details at special meeting (yesterday)

    - Note that effectively only 5-6% of the ~2.6B events dimuon triggered events are selected.
      PWGs (esp. HF and LFS) are requested to see if this compatible with their priorities.
