Katie Breivik (Flatiron) has started a meeting in New York for those interested in SDSS-V data and science. This has been fun; I have learned about a lot of different projects that I didn't know about. In today's meeting, Adrian Price-Whelan (Flatiron) showed some plots of the distribution of different abundances in the Milky Way disk, showing that we can probably see the Galaxy mid-plane way better in the abundances than in the kinematics. And kinematic evolution aligns the abundances with the kinematics! Nice result there. We vowed to have an expert come and walk us through SDSS-V target selection soon, since we were all soft on what, exactly, we would target!
