Love it! And great questions at the bottom. Maybe treat this as a beta test year and add to the deliverables recommendations for governance (chair or no chair) and committee membership (terms). I would recommend CoCo solicit volunteers and then choose 5-7 people. Let them decide if they want a chair or not. |

One thing to add is that IMO, the goal of this committee is to not just to maintain/create the roadmap, but to figure out how to IMPLEMENT the roadmap. |
|
Re: Implementation -- That needs money though. Do they then work with Finance Committee for that part? There is no point suggesting a plan that cannot be sustained or paid for? |
|
That's correct. The Strategic Planning Committee should have a solid understanding of the financial position of the Project. |

Several suggestions, although nothing major big-picture
| * Outside of meetings, must be willing to invest time in actually accomplishing | ||

| workload at a given time, and how that load is divided among committee members. | ||
| Maybe no more than a few days a month? |

For a reasonably sized committee I suspect it's less than a few days a month. More like a few days a year? Spread out in hour-long chunks of course, but still.

Can people really do strategic planning for worldwide project by only investing a few days a year worth of work? 🤔

I am hesitant to state "a few days a year" at this point, so I will not accept this suggestion for this round.

Probably goes without saying, but since I happened to see this fly by — NRAO and SKAO are obviously fundamentally important here, but they aren't the only game in town. A huge player is ALMA (which means ESO and NAOJ, not just NRAO); also the (independent!) SKA pathfinders like ASKAP and LOFAR; and a whole panoply of other projects, great and small (CHIME, DSA-2000, etc etc etc).

@jdswinbank , do you have specific text suggestion to make this point better? Or should I just lump in all these other acronyms for completeness? Hope you can advise. Thanks!

I modified the text, hopefully to your liking. If not, please suggest something. Thanks!

This document is now ready for a final review, mainly by CoCo6, but we also welcome other reviews if provided by a timely manner. Thanks! |

Thanks @pllim |
Before we can solicit interest (again), need to lay out the expectations. Please comment here as we hash things out. I never expect this PR to be merged, rather just find it more convenient than a Google Doc for public discussions.
This is a follow-up of:
Fun fact: 9 people raised their hands at Astropy Coordination Meeting 2024 to express interest to join this committee.
