  11. 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
