According to our bylaws, we have two weeks to review this draft and provide comments:

> For each proposed paper, a writing team will be formed by the Publication and Presentations Committee, composed of those persons most closely associated with the analysis ofthe data and knowledgeable about the instrumentation, and one or two senior people notassociated with the analysis of the data. They should prepare a manuscript they believe issuitable for submission to a journal, i.e. with final figures,correct spelling and grammar,etc. The collaboration will be given two weeks to make comments on this first draft. Then a “review team” will be formed, composed of the writing team, one member of the Publication Committee and two other suitable members of the Collaboration, to take into account these comments and form a second draft. The collaboration will have two more weeks for final comments on the second draft. The comments for the second draft may not ask for major changes to the manuscript, but may only point out small problems that were not noticed in the first round.

Subsequent to this, the paper will be submitted to PRD for publication.

Please send comments on the draft to Matt Graham, with the EC Chair (Tim) and PPC Chair (Norman) in cc.

Best regards,
Tim on behalf of the HPS EC
