ECP task updates

ECP/VTK-m Project Management

Roundtable

David Pugmire gave short 10 min presentation to Alpine internal review. It would be good to have him repeat it for VTK-m. - Maybe have Silvio present, too.

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.
