4. GODAE Final Symposium, 12 – 15 November 2008, Nice, France
Review of GOV
Will be discussed at telecon on Weds this week
Will probably involve a Symposium and an expert review
What should be the scope of review (it may be quite narrow)
is the coordination effective and worthwhile ?
do we have the right working groups ?
Timing may depend on opportunities for co-hosting of Symposium:
late 2013 may be optimal time (GODAE Final Symposium was Nov 2008)
