A list of working groups was agreed on.
There will be three contact persons for each group, one from each region. The three regions will finalize their nominations by September 15th.
The co-chairs will be in contact with Enrique Fernandez for the organizing committee of the Sitges LCWS to consult on the names of session organizers.
The co-chairs will draft a letter giving the charge to the contact persons.
The next meeting after Sitges will be in the USA, possibly at Fermilab in the spring of 2000.
A group of three was set up to consult on a list of references reactions: F. Richards, M. Peskin, K. Fujii. They should report by early November.
The present coordinating committee agreed to remain in existence and meet approximately once a year as appropriate. The membership will evolve with time. The next full meeting will be at Sitges. The committee felt that its size is about right.
