... While the workshop participants documented several strategic elements in technical white papers, the workshop co chairs noted "a sustained effort well beyond the time horizon of your panel will be necessary for us to reach community consensus on key aspects of a strategic plan for the U.S. program." The technical descriptions for each strategic element were prepared by knowledgeable experts and updated to accommodate review com ments.
