Annual AGORA Workshops

   □ We will have a Collaboration-wide brainstorming session on the present and future of AGORA, to best utilize the science comparison opportunities that opened up with the "CosmoRun".   We will also decide on the projects (and their leaderships) we can newly launch, or relaunch.  This will be a great chance for new participants in particular — you are welcome to submit a short elevator pitch as a video clip, or talk to the Project Coordinator.   

   □ We will also have more technical discussions on the next batch of three AGORA Papers (Papers VII, VIII, IX), primarily with the existing members already deep in the Project.  Many of the Paper Group leaders and code leaders will join us.  The latest Collaboration progress report on the ongoing Papers could be useful for the session participants (membership required).    

   □ If you wish to join the meeting in person on the UC Santa Cruz campus, please talk to the Project Coordinator.  Other than the Collaboration-wide discussion, we do not plan to have any talks during our live sessions.
