Some notes on the application

We can expect to hear about success or failure around Oct-Nov. this year. We expect the start date to be 1 Feb. 2000 (that's what the EC seems to expect). We are asking for a 4 year long duration for the network.

For convenience here at Glasgow, we have decided to make Matthew Chalmers the official coordinator for Gauguin: so it is he who'll have to sign and send the reports to the EC, and also write them if we let him down. However, he, Mark, and I all put a lot of work into the proposal, and I expect all of us to continue to put joint effort into running the network.

On the web site there is a page listing the participant numbers we assigned to each site, and the official name for the proposal. It also has a list of everyone's contact details: let me know if yours are wrong.

You can also see the final version of the application: this defines our/your commitments to the commission.

Some of the things we are promising to the commission, but not all of which we discussed fully with you due to lack of time, are:
a) We will hold workshops AT LEAST once a year. It is important that many people attend them, and that we produce written papers for them or from them. Of course, we hope that after the first year at least, the young researchers will do a lot of this.
b) We said that some of the permanent staff (i.e. not the young researchers) would put on special tutorials as a contribution to training the young researchers (and the rest of us), particularly early on. Like for instance the exercise that Annelise and Raya put on at a Mira workshop.
c) We said that the jobs would be advertised to all sites by a central email distribution list (as well as any other way you like to advertise them).

The web site also has a few other things, such as the complete list of proposed projects for our young researchers.
