-**Highlights:**
+==== Highlights ====
-)	The Instrument Cluster Expert Group needs OEM and Tier One members to join the group so we can gather requirements for this project. Contact me or join the next expert group meeting if you want to contribute. https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/eg-ic
+)	We had a couple offers of help, but we are still looking for some more documentation site improvements.   If you have expertise in HTLM5 and CSS and want to help, check out JIRA issues SPEC-2317, <del>SPEC-2318</del>, and SPEC-2319. Please contact me if you can help us out. We will be looking for more redesign of the overall look and feel of the site as well.  There is an Epic in Jira (SPEC-2330) with subtasks that cover the redesign.
-)	Following the F2F meeting in Tokyo the re-architecture of the window manager and compositor has taken some great strides forward. This also includes a new input manager and activity manager for applications.  On Monday the Graphics and UI Expert Group will review a revised proposal for the design.  If there are requirements you want to see fulfilled in these areas please plan to join us.
+)	The release of the hardware specification being written by the Reference Hardware System Architecture EG was delayed until next week. This should lead to a 2-DIN hardware prototype that can be purchased by AGL Members. A draft version of the spec can be found here for review and early comments. https://wiki.automotivelinux.org/_media/eg-rhsa/agl_referencehardwarespec_v0.2.0draft.pdf
-)	The System Architecture Team will take a look at the latest window manager proposal as well as get an update on plans for using PipeWire (https://pipewire.org/) in the AGL audio stack on Thursday.
+)	Let’s talk about Telematics!  Join the Connectivity EG is <del>meeting on Thursday</del> to discuss the current state of the Telematics profile and contribute to the requirements or development. **Update: Canceled this week's meeting due to Golden Week and other vacations.**
