Subject: INT Wide Angle Survey Collaboration Meeting


Dear Colleagues,

	The INT Wide Field Survey Program has now been running for
just over a year and a meeting all the co-Is to discuss progress and
exploitation is much overdue.

	Details of the currents status of the survey(s) can
be found at:

    
Cambridge Mirror of ING WWW page
http://www.ast.cam.ac.uk/ING/WFCsur/

My WWW page 
 http://www.ast.cam.ac.uk/ING/WFCsur/

Cambridge Survey Units WWW page

http://www.ast.cam.ac.uk/~mike/casu/WFCsur/WFCsur.html 
	

	There is some duplication but each WWW page serves a different
primary purpose. At my page there is a link to some recent status
reports on the survey and two conference papers. These are the best
summary of the current state of play. The most recent update is that
the INT WFC is now using SDSU-II controllers and the read out time is
now less than 1minute for all 4 2kx4k CCDs.
