Hall A CC Meeting Minutes 12 December, 2007 12:00pm In attendence: Kees, John, Bryan, Kent (phone) Propoals for PAC 33: 13.5 Hall A Proposals (0.5 from 4He PT proposal). From Pete, appeared that only one was in question for approval (the rest were approved). - Deuteron B(Q2): Not approved in present state, but an updated Proposal was made available. May now be fine for approval (for PAC33 presentation). Pete was contacted, after the meeting, and found that this proposal was approved upon further review. Annual Report: Some discussion about the editting process. Still awaiting contributions from: saGDH - Vince/Alex nDVCS - Eric Compton - Sirish CSR/NaI - ? New Members: Have only gotten word on 3 new student members. They will be automatically inducted. Hall A Publication List: 44 publications over 10 years. 52 experiments run during this time. Some discussion on further persuasion techniques for getting more papers (especially archival papers). - Specific pressure on individual spokespersons? - Annual report submissions required for those without archival papers? - Annual report for experiments with ongoing analysis (even after letter submission) Hall A Charter: Some revisions that may/should be made, similar to those proposed during last CC meeting. John will talk about these during the Collaboration meeting. Perhaps a revision w.r.t. the Collaboration role into the 12 GeV era. This would potentially have an impact on 12 GeV LOIs (DISParity, Moller). Lab Management response to DOE budget warning (not sure if that's phrased right) Should/will there be a Hall A CC response? John recommends that we talk with the other Halls, and check for their recommendations... then feed these responses in some coherent form to the Users Group Board. Next (Summer 2008) Collaboration Meeting: The Users Group Board of Directors requested that the Hall A and Hall B meetings should be just before (or after) the Users Group Meeting.
