The date is now set at: March 24-26, 2008. Begin: Morning of Monday, March 24. End: Noon on Wednesday, March 26.

**SUMMARY AND ACTION ITEMS**

**ACTION UPDATE**

Suggested Hotel: Hotel Monaco.

Engineering Attendees: Jim Miller, Xiaodong Tao, Steve Pieper, Will Schroeder, Marco Ruiz (Full list of attendees in the end of page)

Place: SCI Institute, 72 South Campus Drive, Warnock Engineering Building WEB (Directions), 3rd floor Jones conference room 3840 (elevator to 3rd floor, room is to the left).
