Time	Item	Presenter	Notes
15 Minutes	Open edX Piral Demo	Pedro Martello	Presentation of the Open edX Piral POC demonstrating how to implement a Piral shell to load MFEs into a single page app context. For background see: [CLOSED] FC-0007 - Modular MFE Domains Discovery
5 minutes	Palm update	Adolfo Brandes	eduNext has volunteered to maintain frontend-app-communications! That leaves ora-grading: still on Adolfo’s plate… … learner-dashboard: somebody needs to write an experimental plugin for it… … and the Node 18 update: it’s also on Adolfo’s plate to figure out what’s blocking that Jeremy: it’s unblocked now (TL;DR - frontend-enterprise has release automation that currently doesn’t work with the CLA check, but there’s a manual workaround now)
1 minute	react-router & React upgrades	Jeremy Bowman	These are coming after the Node 18 upgrade concludes
5 minutes	Deprecating more legacy UI code	Jeremy Bowman	We want to do more coordination and planning for replacing legacy UI code with MFEs; the DEPR WG meetings are the currently proposed venue for conversations around this.

@Adolfo Brandes will start joining the DEPR WG meetings to help move the legacy UI deprecation project forward
