Hi Anita, hi all,

While I fully understand and support the decision to cancel the F2F meeting, I don’t see why we cannot do the meeting on Vibe as prepared. Most colleagues have reserved next week for the collaboration meeting in their agendas anyway… Of course there will be less discussion compared to a F2F meeting, but the exchange of information and update of the collaboration would happen without much difficulty I believe.. 

Cheers,
Fabian

Dear All,

  you will have received the message from Stefan Wagner that, unfortunately, the HESS collaboration meeting in Obergurgl has to be cancelled. Still, critical status updates are planned to be transported to the whole collaboration, also supported via a dedicated vibe meeting.
Further forms of exchanging information are possible. E.g., each department may organize also a department-wide vibe meeting with talks, reports, etc that would be beneficial to communicate to beyond the WG. For the Astrophysics Department it is upon us:
- if
- what
- in which form and format
- when
Please comment by tomorrow (Thursday) late afternoon (~5pm). We may also have a quick vibe meeting on this (Friday?) if you think it is helpful.

I am truly sorry for this turn. A lot of work and time has flown already into the preparations of an attractive AP Program for a F2F(!)-collaboration meeting. Vibe meetings can not substitute the important discussions that are typically triggered in F2F-meetings. Still, to demonstrate an active astrophysics program within HESS, motivation for most to dedicate a lot of time and engagement to the HESS experiment, is important.

All the best,
Anita
