Keith Ellis Cc: hcp08-iac@fnal.gov, hcp08-loc@fnal.gov Subject: Re: Draft program 2008-JAN-08 Dear Dr. Keith, I think the proposed plan looks very good. Concerning "the balance of geographic distribution", I like to make two suggestions, (1) please include more candidates from Asia if possible, (2) As you may know, KEK is seriously proposing the super-B factory plan starting in FY2009. I would be happy if you could give a time slot for "super-B plan and its physics goals" either in S4 (B Physics) or S8 (Machine Status). best regards, Taka Kondo, KEK ----- Original Message ----- From: "R.
