Hi Ashutosh-

When forwarding, we should probably mention that a Snowmass-detector 
study done by an ATLAS author is not an ATLAS result, but that any 
result that uses ATLAS software or ATLAS datasets (even Monte Carlo) 
is.   Otherwise I fear that this will be more confusing than clarifying.

Cheers,

Tom
