Subject:  June CMS Week - HCAL Preliminary agenda


Dear Colleagues:

     I enclose a revised preliminary agenda for the June CMS week. We will
hold an HB/HF technical meeting on the Sunday prior to the CMS week
as usual. Thus we will have a meeting on Sunday, June 2.
If you want to give/drop a presentation or make suggestions for
additional/alternate presentations please let me know soon.
The agenda is PRELIMINARY and subject to change.

Note that there is an ECAL/HCAL interface on Tuesday morning
and an HCAL/MUON interface meeting on Wednesday morning.

The HCAL IB meeting has been moved to Wednesday morning at the request of
Dan Green and Jim Hanlon.
