Next Steps
• Is it appropriate for Steve/Mark attend every subcommittee meeting?
• What instructions to give to subcommittees?• Draft invitation language• Send invitations to potential subcommittee
members – request response by April 30• Review schedule for upcoming meetings and
tasks
12
Schedule• Mid-May to mid-June 2006: subcommittees have first face-to-face
meetings (~1.5 day meetings)
• By September 1, 2006: subcommittees have second face-to-face meetings (~1.5 day meetings)
• By October 1, 2006: subcommittees submit draft reports
• November 2006: steering committee has second face-to-face meeting to review draft report (~1.5-2 day meeting)
• February 2007: steering- and sub-committees hold workshop to work on the draft report, find gaps,
etc, with select, small number of invitees from community (~2 day meeting)
• March 2007: larger community-wide workshop, to identify high-priority areas for R&D on new
instruments and facilities based on scientific needs (~2 day meeting)
• July 2007: steering committee discusses BAMS submission paper via email and
teleconference
