14:00 -  17:00    AdV Project Organization        (J-Y. Vinet)               Auditorium            

Discussion on the AdV project organization:
starting points :
  1. The new construction phase already began this week. The old project structure is formally still in place, but some SSM asked to change their level of involvement
  2. The PL is thus faced with manpower and delegation problems
  3. Could the structure be improved ?
  4. A status of the plans of our laboratories for involvement would be of help, in the perimeter of their MoA's
  5. What tasks could receive extra help from the collaboration ?
  6. What do we expect from EGO ?

17:00 -  19:00    Data Analysis        (M.-A. Bizouard)               Auditorium
