For people who won't be able to attend, is it possible to provide the agenda/recording at the end of the meeting?

The meeting will be recorded and should be uploaded to gem5 youtube. I will update this post with the link once it is uploaded.

This page seems unmaintained which makes the gem5 project look more abandoned than it probably is: https://www.gem5.org/dev_meetings/

Has the page been replaced by something else?

Clang Format Discussion

• Some developers raised questions about adopting Clang format for consistent code styling.
• Broader discussion postponed until more advocates are present.

General Notes

• Open invitation for developers to raise additional issues at the end.
