May 16th : LOI to MOA negotiation letter from LSST
Jul. 3rd : Circulated May 16th document to KPG members
(Questionnaires to be filled by the end of July)
Jul 26th : Sent out the answers to the questionnaires
2014
Feb 8th : Template MOA draft document received
Mar. 27th : KASI internal review for the MOA draft done

Action needed
Official organization of the KPG for LSST
Identify real members of the KPG among 11 LOI members +/- people who really
want to join.
Sign MOU among institutions which real members affiliate
Final revision of the MOA draft
Sign and execute MOA
