ECP task updates

ECP/VTK-m Project Management

Review of [=FY22%3A2 FY22/Q2 tasks]

Roundtable

Buildbot stopped working on MRs. (Seemed to start on Monday.) Also, the jool runner does not seem to be working.

LSSw whitepaper

Rename master branch?

• Need to wait for some changes to git before the transition (for some automated features of repo).
• Can we for a time have a master that mirrors the new default?
  • Don't know, but seems possible. Will have to look into that.
