Recall that the format of the meeting will be 6 sessions, each 2 hours in length. A maximum of 1 hour will be devoted to overviews from the JLab perspective (30 minutes) and the RIA perspective (30 minutes). This will be followed by a 1 hour discussion led by the discussion leaders. The Workshop is open to additional participants (contact the organizer); all Workshop participants are invited, indeed expected, to take part in all 6 sessions!

An expected outcome of the Workshop will be a short, but well-written (2-3 page) summary that highlights the "essential" physics of each session. While this may require additional post-meeting work by members of each group, our goal is to have consensus on focus by the end of the Workshop.
