Dear ASAC members,

 Unfortunately I cannot join today's telecon because
 we have a pre-negotiation meeting with MEXT on 2007 ALMA-J/NAOJ
 budget request for operation cost etc today and I will
 visit MEXT with DG of NAOJ as (acting) ALMA-J ARC manager.

 In stead of me, Baltasar will report on ALMA-J issues.
 I also apologize for not being present as a JAO acting project scientist.
 

Regards,

Ryohei

Dear ASAC members,
     a few basics for the logistics of the face to face meeting in  
Florence (which, I believe, has been supported by the Board):

- The meeting will be held at the Arcetri Observatory.
   The Observatory is located on a hill just outside the city, all  
hotels are located midway or at the bottom of the
    hill. In decent weather conditions, it may be a pleasant walk to  
hike up the hill (10 to 20 min uphill,
    depending on the hotel location), obviously a cab or rental car  
is a viable option there are no parking
    or access restrictions.

- The Florence Airport (FLR) is open again, after a few months of  
forced shutdown to allow renewal of the
    runway. the most convenient option is to fly to a large  
continental Euro HUB (Paris, Frankfurt/Munich)
    and then to Florence. Alternatives could be to fly to Pisa or  
Bologna and then catch a train to Florence,
    this is a viable option from many european destinations. Unless  
you have a good reason to do it, I would
    avoid flying to Milan/Rome and then try to reach Florence.

    From Florence airport to the Hotel or the Observatory the most  
convenient option is a cab (unless you plan to
    rent a car).

- I need an approximate head count to block a set of rooms at the  
nearby Hotels, you will then have to reserve
   individually with your credit card.

Folks,

The past month has seen a great deal of ALMA activity, including the
ALMA Board meeting in Santiago and the AIVC meeting just afterward.
Earlier this week, concrete was poured at the Vertex antenna
laydown area for the first antenna foundation.  Many others will follow and
within a year these foundations will begin to sprout the antennas from
which ALMA science will eventually blossom.

Please recircle the telecon date on your calendar.
