Big Delay ! • There is a big delay – 1 year • Cause: • Additional quality control of data was required • Very little participation from the community • Lately things have warmed up (last 2 months) • Several groups have submitted results of step 1 • Several groups have contacted us indicating they are currently working on the experiment • A new timeline has been proposed • Submitted for approval to the GLASS meeting in Japan • If no additional participation will go ahead with the 9 models already working.
