The plan for the Test Interferometer (TI) evaluation tasks has been formulated. The goals of the TI are, in order of priority:
A detailed list of tasks, sequenced to accomplish these goals, has been developed. Refinement of this plan will continue over the coming months, with a concentration on the assignment of personnel resources to the assembled tasks. Several issues, including the status of phase and amplitude calibration systems for the TI, will be revised and/or accommodated in the plan over the next six months. By spring 2001, we would like to have a final plan.
