Mike Tiefenback has ceded the B team meeting slot this week for 
discussion and scheduling the work required June 21-23 to set up the 
injector and machine for Qweak.

Below I copy an email Matt Poelker sent 19 May listing injector tasks 
for Qweak.  Attached is a draft schedule including many of these tasks 
and the energy change.

At the meeting we will revise this schedule and attach names to 
activities.

Thank you.
