• Imaging Object Quality Control and Maintenance - Detailed Proposal

The following "slates of work" were put forward, each listing a group of proposals and the estimated Tech Cmte bandwith. Slates significantly over 100% must indicate which proposal is "below the line" (meaning it can be dropped/delayed if the Tech Cmte runs into bandwidth problems). Rad TF Maintenance 20% is required.

Slate 1 - A1 B D E = 105%

Slate 2 - A1 (A2) B D E = 125%

Slate 3 - B D E = 85%

Slate 4 - (A1) B C E = 115%

Slate 5 - A1 C (D) E = 110%

Slate 6 - A1 A2 B E = 95%

Slate 1 received more than half the votes in the first ballot.
