[STSP] Update on Decadal Plan Workshop

[Phil Wilkinson]

Dear Decadal Plan Workshop speakers and Plan colleagues,

everything appears to be on track for the Workshop next Wednesday,
30 September, including the opening by Senator Hurley and the
talk by John Zillman. The program is up on the website, at
http://www.nssa.com.au/ocs/index.php?cf=11 ,
except for the attached file which gives the draft program for the
presentations for draft proposals for the Australian Space Science 
Program.

More details on the opportunity to present these draft ASSP proposals
is given below. We may have time for 1-2 more such presentations. If
you're interested, then send me the info ASAP - first come, first served.

Any revisions ... or comments, then feel free to email me.

With best wishes,

Iver.

(Iver Cairns, as Co-Chair of ASSC and Chair of the Plan Steering 
Committee).

P.S. This email will separately be sent to all known
attendees for ASSC.
