Dear Jim, Francois, Hitoshi, Can you please suggest dates and times when there may be WWs-OC meetings at LCWS? My wife will be there, and I'd like to plan the week well in advance. Many thanks Yours ever David -----Original Message----- From: [log in to unmask] [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Jim Brau Sent: 10 April 2007 14:51 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: The Roadmap for ILC Detectors Dear Colleague, We think that it is important and useful to draw your attention on some recent issues about the future of detector activities on ILC. These issues were publicly debated during the ILC ACFA meeting in Beijing. The roadmap drafted by the WWS-OC and the reactions they have triggered in these debates were presented at ILCSC, the international body which is surveying the WWS activities. You will find an attached document sent to the co-Chairs of the WWS International Organizing Committee by the chairman of ILCSC. In this document ILCSC is urging us to keep pace with the accelerator schedule which means producing Engineering Design Reports for two detectors by 2010. To achieve this goal, the WWS co-chairs have started regular meetings with representatives of the four concepts and intend to present conclusions during LCWS07 in DESY. Best regards, The WWS co-chairs, Jim Brau, Hitoshi Yamamoto and Francois Richard -- James E.
