[ASA] URGENT: OTAC seeks community feedback on Large Programmes at Gemini

[Chris Tinney]

Dear colleagues,

Gemini Observatory has been working on developing a model
for the implementation of "Large and Long Programmes"
across the Gemini Partnership.

The Optical Telescopes Advisory Committee has seen and
commented on early drafts of the description of how this
scheme would work, and now seeks community input on the
current form of the proposal (which is attached).

OTAC is broadly supportive of the current model, and seeks
feedback that can inform Australia's position at
the upcoming Gemini Board meeting in May.

Comments should be sent to both Chris Tinney (OTAC Chair
c.tinney at unsw.edu.au<mailto:c.tinney at unsw.edu.au>) *and* Yeshe Fenner (AAL
Executive Officer yeshe.fenner at astronomyaustralia.org.au<mailto:yeshe.fenner at astronomyaustralia.org.au>)
to arrive before before Friday April 26, 2013.

Regards

Chris Tinney
