Òåìà: Report on Radio Astronomy in Europe

Dear ASTRONET members,

Please receive the following message on behalf of the ERTRC / Ralph Wijers, Chair.

Best regards
Peter

Dear Members of the ASTRONET and RadioNet Boards,

Please find below our cover letter to the European astronomy
community in which we provide access to our draft report and
sollicit feedback on its contents by 28 May 2015.

We would appreciate greatly if you help us disseminate this
information as widely as possible in the community of all
ASTRONET and RadioNet members, so that as many astronomers
as possible are made aware of the draft and may provide feedback.
The members of the committee will distribute the report via their
own contacts in the following countries, where we have access to
a reasonably complete list of all professional astronomers:

France
Germany
Italy
Netherlands
Spain
UK

Regards,
on behalf of the ERTRC,
Ralph Wijers, Chair
????????????????????? community cover letter ?????
Date: 6 May 2015
From: European Radio Telescope Review Committee
To: European Astronomy Community

Concerns: Report on Radio Astronomy in Europe

Dear Colleagues,

As part of its process of reviewing and roadmapping European
astronomy, the ASTRONET board has tasked the European Radio Telescope
Review Committee (ERTRC) to review radio astronomy in Europe, in
concert with RadioNet, and make recommendations on its future. As you
may recall, we issued preliminary recommendations for community
comments in 2013 and requested feedback via our online forum and via
interaction at a number of astronomical conferences, in particular the
2013 EWASS in Turku. Based on all input and our own further
consultations, we now present to you a draft of our full report, with
refined recommendations.

** We sollicit your comments, questions, and any other input on our
** draft report BY 28 MAY 2015.

** The draft report and means of providing feedback may be found at
** ertrc.strw.leidenuniv.nl

A few important points to note:
1. ASTRONET acts on behalf of the entire astronomical community in the countries of its members, and so the ERTRC members were deliberately independent and not all from radio astronomy. Thus the report is on behalf of, and of interest to, all astronomers.
2. Feedback is thus appreciated from all members of the European astronomy community.
3. The preferred mode of communicating your comments to us is via the web forum linked below, where you may also find the draft report, so that the input given is transparent to the community. If, however, you wish to keep your comments private, you may use the special email address listed on the forum website. Such comments will be confidential to the committee.
Regards,
on behalf of the ERTRC,
Ralph Wijers, Chair
