Hi Alexander,

What I meant on slide 2 is that in terms of software funding and FTEs, EIC is in a real way a natural (and strategic :-) follow-on to sPHENIX. That's what the management has said: the effort that we build up now, targeted primarily to sPHENIX, we can sustain beyond sPHENIX by directing it at EIC. I didn't mean piggy backing on sPHENIX software. Not sure how to reword it because as I read it, it says what I mean! Suggestions welcome

   I think at present only sPHENIX software qualifies to be called a
complete GEANT4 simulation, suitable for EIC. EicRoot is a very
vertasile EIC-oriented tracker development tool, and it has eRHIC-related
IR description machinery, which is used to populate pCDR (and later on
CDR) documents. The rest, to be honest, is more or less obsolete and/or
not really supported.

   Yet I think 'EIC Software' bullet on slide 2 should be somewhat
"diversified". EIC software effort is clearly not limited to piggy
back and/or follow on sPHENIX. This is obviously true for the current
state. May also well be so for the future (in the unfortunate case
JLAB wins the site selection or the Day One EIC collaboration decides
to write its software from scratch or Jana-based framework developed
by the EIC community grows into a great success, etc).

   Cheers,
     Alexander.
