Abby Slack message 3rd Oct:

I am just raising that we may want to move the 'LRC PBMC Pools Input' entry point to be on the 'LRC GEM-X 5p GEMs' plate instead i.e. to have a 'LRC GEM-X 5p GEMs Input' plate. This is still under discussion and we hope to make a decision at the working group on the 17th October. The benefit of this change is that it would enable samples to enter at a safe stopping point in the pipeline, reducing the time pressure for the handover. If we do decide to go ahead, we should require this for pre-production (currently w/c 18th November) Please let me know if you foresee any issues with this and I'll keep you updated.

Current timelines are expecting LIMS to be live for 18th November (5 weeks).
