Dear Michael and SWG members, Thank you for this report. It is great to see the results of all this hard work. As you know, the SWG's mission has the active encouragement and support of the NSF, and so I duly now pass the document on to their Astronomy Division. I'm also copying this to the Astronomy & Astrophysics Advisory Committee, which was established following the 2001 Augustine Committee for the purpose of coordinating NSF/NASA/DOE/administration support for astronomy. Sidney and I will discuss publication of a hard copy.
