    scenario with DESY local group.
  • The collaboration also established a first draft
    of commissioning and data taking schedule.
  • Funding from the US side is critical to start the
    experiment still under discussion
  • Expect feedback soon (today?)

    Universities may not go through

Recommendation
  • Collaboration is encouraged
  • to further explore the technical aspects of the
    experiment
  • Critical review of the installation process with
    a possible backup plans
  • Commissioning strategy robust enough for timely
    completion
  • to identify DEDICATED Person-Power
  • Critical for the experiment with limited time
    window
  • to actively search for funding possibilities
  • Another review might be necessary before summer
    with the input from the all funding
    possibilities, especially the ones from the US ?
    drop dead date of the project
  • May need labs help to support this kind of small
    experiments, not included in the five year plan
