>1. Nick Walker on the Baseline Configuration Document (BCD)
>
>Nick expressed his personal view on how the BCD could take shape. It is 
>requested by the GDE for end of 2005 as first milestone on the way to a 
>CDR, due by end 2006. The CDR will have to be of a form comparable to 
>the TESLA TDR or the US options study. Thus, the BCD should contain 
>basic ILC concepts and parameters such that the specified performance 
>goals are met with certitude, and that they can serve as basis for a 
>cost estimate. In practice, the latter point will limit how "forward 
>looking" the BCD can be.
>The configuration will not be "frozen" but serve as focus for 
>the work up towards the CDR, while alternatives are still 
>being supported. The BCD should not be a thick report but a 
>web based document collection.
>While there is consensus on this conception and timeline, the 
>level of detail for the BCD is still contentiuous. Several 
>decisons on site-dependent issues (tunnel length, crossing 
>angles) need to be taken, see slides for more examples. The 
>need for a not too cmplicated electronics document management 
>system was emphasized.

>The agenda is generally quite packed, in particlular in week

>hoping this mays serve as subsitutue for the too small number 
>of jount session.
