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 the canSAS has had at both the 2009 and 2012 SAS meetings and also held a small workshop in the summer of 2012 (with the focus on "work") to advance the work of three of the working groups.

At this meeting the community is asked to come together again as a larger group to discuss
