    SCP Collaborators,

    Below is a preliminary agenda for the Collaboration Meeting. Please
    let me know of changes in title, topics, time, etc.. A revised version
    will be distributed before the meeting and kept updated on the TWiki:

    Also, people are reminded to post analysis notes on the TWiki. (Or if
    you have a write-up posted elsewhere, you can just put a link on the
    TWiki). See http://panisse.lbl.gov/collab/ for a reminder on TWiki
    access.
