[Oliver Keeble]

Hi Brian,

Looks good. Andrea Manzi will deputise for me as the CERN rep.

Does this give us the institutional/project coverage we need?

I do not see it technical work or day-to-day activity here as a prerequisite to serving on the committee (but certainly many will chose to participate technically too!).  There will be a time investment around the startup, but I expect this to flatten over the next month or two.  Depending on how the PMC would like to run itself after things get going, membership could be for a long- or short-duration.
