== Schedule ==

The following is the rough timetable for further development of GENI's research plan, reference design, and execution plan, in preparation for a Conceptual Design Review (CDR) in early 2007.
November 1st: 2nd draft of GDDs

    * complete draft of research plan by 11/21

December 1st: 3rd draft of GDDs
January 1st: Penultimate draft of GDDs (including research plan)

    * Activities in January:
          * integrate design/wbs/budget (extracted from GDDs) into PEP
          * review of research plan (organized by CCC)

February 1st: Penultimate draft of PEP and Research Plan

    * Activities in February:
          * GDDs revised to be consistent with PEP
          * planning group brings GPO up-to-speed

March 1st: Final version of PEP, Research Plan, supporting GDDs

    * documents frozen for review

April 1st: Conceptual Design Review (CDR)
May 1st: GENI presented to NSB

Assuming GENI passes the CDR and is inserted into the Readiness Queue, the post-CDR timeline for the the MREFC process looks like this:
