CROSS/JPARC in Japan - July 14-16, 2015
Mission
At the canSAS-V meeting in Washington DC in the fall of 2007, the canSAS community (collective action for nomadic small angle scatters) continued the trend started at the previous meeting in the UK of moving the discussion beyond data formats to discuss the variety of issues that affect SAS practioners worldwide. At that meeting, participants also started discussing how to build a community of practitioners and to move beyond discussions at meetings to sustainalble longer term action and achievents that respond to themes and issues identified at these meetings; moving beyond talk to the action in its name. Several working groups were set up to continue working after the meeting. Since then, the cansas.org domain was aquired, this wiki and a web presence were set up, and the working groups have moved forward. In the summer of 2012 a small workshop (with the focus on "work") was held at Uppsala to advance the work of three of the working groups. Progress has been presented at the international SAS meeetings in Oxford in 2009 and Sydney in 2012.
The time is now ripe for the community to come together again as a whole, at a dedicated meeting, away from the distractions of other meetings to discuss how issues have evolved and what the current challenges are for the community. In that vein the community is encouraged to participate early in shaping the content of the meeting by suggesting topics and speakers/discussion group leaders. Once again we hope to leave the meeting with some concrete action plans icluding hosting a session at the 2015 SAS meeting in Berlin to report on this meeting.
