There's a meeting in Houston next week to solidify the community recommendations, which I decided to go to in order to build the case for PlasmaPy among the people who will be there, like getting people from different projects interested (including from high energy density physics).

let it be said that the sacrifices you make are seen and appreciated ;)

Oh awesome... There's more important stuff in the draft strategic plan too:

Codes of conduct (e.g. APS, IEEE) should be clearly articulated at technical meetings to
reinforce to session leaders and attendees how to maintain respectful conversations.
Individual institutions should be encouraged to adopt these codes of conduct within their
own groups and suggest improvements. Leaders in the field (all PIs and managers)
should be required to take training on issues including diversity, unconscious bias,
cultural competence, and bystander intervention. Recommendations on how to increase
the effectiveness of training should be utilized from the 2018 National Academies report
on Sexual Harassment of Women including in-person rather than online training and that
includes active participation with other trainees. The DOE can enforce compliance with
these enhanced training activities directly at their own facilities as well as through
applications to their Funding Opportunity Announcements (FOAs) as part of the
“Program Policy Factors”. The Committee of Visitors (COV) assigned to review the DOE
FES program should include a review of what efforts are being made to monitor and
encourage diversity among funding recipients.

• Oh! And some good news! As I've mentioned a while ago, there is an ongoing Community Planning Process to produce a set of recommendations that the US Department of Energy Office of Fusion Energy Sciences will use to guide funding decisions over the next ~5-10 years. A few of us submitted community papers on PlasmaPy, scientific reproducibility, and equity/inclusion.

The draft strategic plan was released late yesterday. It includes a bunch of elements from these papers, including this!
Software/algorithms: Many areas of frontier plasma science require similar computational methods. Sharing and standardizing software can advance science by lowering the barrier to use and improving scientific reproducibility. DOE should support the development of a common open source codebase and promote the production of readable, reliable, and maintainable software. A model in this regard is the “PlasmaPy” project.

That's such great news! Especially the explicit mention of PlasmaPy! :)
