all discussion

WG3ab-Discussion about questions like:

  • Which of the various WG3b projects are related or even affected by the ConSAT activity and vice versa?
  • Are there inherent contradictions, and is there a need for harmonization?
  • What are the true inherent problems, and can we arrange all the related efforts under a leading concept?
  • How can we organize a workflow of complementing contributions to the model, avoiding double work as well as undesired interference?
