This was a week of updates from the OpSim working group. 

Cathy and Kem reported on the reference run document update. The document is not done yet, but should be done soon. The contents of the CCB document and other inputs are in Docushare Collection 4604 - https://docushare.lsstcorp.org/docushare/dsweb/View/Collection-4604

Cathy ran through the changes in terminology - 'baseline cadence' is overloaded, but should be recognized to refer to the overall set of proposals + expected observing strategy in the reference run. Perhaps "baseline observing strategy" is more clear. "Universal cadence" is discouraged, in favor of "WFD cadence", which refers to multiple (not necessarily just 2, although that is what is in the current reference) visits inside one night. The footprint for the WFD cadence can vary .. in practice, in the baseline observing strategy, has WFD cadence in the WFD footprint and also in NES footprint, for example. Cathy will write up a community post clarifying this for the community.
