Ettore Pedretti came out for 2 weeks to work on upgrade xenomai on mirc/champ

How thing were left


Xiao Che came for 3 weeks to lead the MIRC observing and do some small MIRC improvements

work finished and needs to be done


Fabien Baron came for 4+ weeks to observe with CLIMB/CLASSIC and to work on CHAMP engineering

Stefan Kraus came out for 2+ weeks to help with CHAMP


Rafael Millan-Gabet came up for XX nights to help with CHAMP engineering


JDM came out for 3 weeks to help with champ commissioning (4 telescope operation!)
