Mitch: Do we need to get someone to these? Randy Quoting "Jaros, John A." <[log in to unmask]>: > > Dear Colleagues, > > The Silicon Detector Collaboration will hold workshops at SLAC on January > 28-30, 2008, and at RAL April 14-16, 2008, to further preparations for the > SiD Letter of Intent. Everyone participating in SiD, and those interested in > joining and learning more about SiD are welcome to attend. Please mark your > calendars, and see: > > For the SLAC Meeting: http://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/x/HwAr > For the RAL Meeting: http://hepwww.rl.ac.uk/SiDmeetingUK > > > Since time is relatively short, we urge everyone who plans to attend the SLAC > meeting to make travel plans and reserve accommodations as soon as possible. > The Guest House at SLAC is very convenient for participants, but should be > booked well ahead of time. We also request you register on the website above. > > The detailed programs for the two meetings are just now being developed. > Details will follow. > > The SLAC meeting will concentrate on the first pass global detector parameter > optimization, > readiness reviews for track reconstruction and PFA codes, and benchmarking > analyses. Progress on subsystem R&D, subsystem plans for the LOI, and the > status of engineering work will also be discussed. The meeting proper will > run Monday through Wednesday, January 28-30, 2008. > > The RAL meeting will mark freezing the SiD global parameters, reviewing first > pass detailed subsystem parameters, and beginning the technology selection > process for key subsystems. General SiD status and progress will also be > reviewed, and new groups interested in learning about SiD and participating > in the LOI process, introduced and integrated into our efforts. > It also runs Monday through Wednesday, April 14-16, 2008. > > On behalf of SiD, we invite you to attend, and ask that you inform those of > your colleagues who may be interested in the workshop. And please, REGISTER! > A good head count will help our planning. > > Hoping to see you at SLAC in January, and RAL in April, > > Harry Weerts and John Jaros > for the SiD Collaboration > > P.S.
