Workshop Deliverables

The committee will prepare a full report containing the highlights of the Workshop discussions. This report will be circulated to all attendees.

The copyright of the summary report will belong to SPE.
PowerPoint presentation materials will be posted on a specific SPE URL address after the Workshop for access by attendees. Provision of the materials by the discussion leaders will signify their permission for SPE to do so.
