Hello all, Let me remind you that we have a phone conference next Monday, December 9, of the LSST science working group, to discuss the science drivers for the telescope. The meeting will start at 2 PM East Coast Time, and will last roughly 2 hours. The call-in number is 888-455-9640. We have one person that I know of who will be calling from outside the US, namely Kem Cook; Kem, you should call the number: 773-756-4618. If there is anyone else who will be unable to make it, or who will be abroad and plans to call in, please let me know! The following is a suggested agenda; please suggest further items for discussion. As you can see, this agenda needs some fleshing out. Reports from Work Groups: -Weak lensing: Tony Tyson and the <a href=http://astro.princeton.edu/~dss/LSST/lsst-general/msg.24.html>memo</a> he sent around. -Near-Earth asteroids: Al Harris said that he will have thoughts to report on survey strategy. -News on the astrometry front: Dave Monet What about the rest of the work groups? I have not heard a peep since our October Princeton meeting of work happening on KBO's, variable objects/transients, or supernovae. Can we hear from a representative of each of these groups describing where things stand? Report from Pan-Starrs: I know that a number of you (at least Harris, Monet, Jewitt and Kaiser) were at the Pan-Starrs science workshop a few weeks ago: what was learned from that? Is there a summary document from that meeting that we can look at? Status of documentation: There was a desire to put all LSST-related documents together on the web. Also, we need summaries of the various mini-workshops on LSST-related science held in Tucson over the past two years: Sidney Wolff was going to work on that. Plans for the next meeting (on Thursday, January 9, at the AAS meeting), and the next face-to-face meeting after that, (Tucson in March?)
