Dear Colleagues,
I here attach the draft version of the LoA-RG charter for inviting your
comments.
Two files of the same document are attached here - one word file for those
who dread pdf, and one pdf file for those who dread MS word.
We (Yoshio and me) are looking forward to receiving your comments and
views....on the document.
Best regards
Ning
