Dear Colleagues,
The FELIX Letter of Intent has now been submitted to the LHC
Committee for the meeting of 4-5 September. We are very happy
with the final document, and hope you will be, too.
Thank you all for your hard work!
400 advance copies of the LoI have been printed for the LHCC. An
additional 2000 copies will be printed shortly. You can find the
current text on the FELIX web pages in the LoI
section. If you find typos, please submit them to us no later than
15:00 Geneva time on Friday, 15 August, so that we can correct them
in the second printing. After that, you will find the
entire LoI in html format on the FELIX public web pages.
The coming months will be critical ones for FELIX. We expect to make
the open presentations to the LHCC at the meeting of 5-6 November. We
will certainly have questions from the referees which we will need
to answer. We need to find additional collaborators and begin to identify
funding sources. We need to identify critical path issues, and develop
strategies for attacking them. Finally, we will need to create the
organizational framework which will carry us through the preparation of
the Technical Design Report.
We will be contacting you about these and other issues in the coming
days and weeks. In the meantime, thank you again for a job well done,
Sincerely,
Karsten Eggert
