Dear colleagues,

In preparation of the next IGS Technical Workshop scheduled for 8-11 
May 2006, in
Darmstadt, Germany, your suggestions on themes to be covered by the workshop
sessions are requested.

The main topics considered now are:
 - Implementation of GGOS within the IGS
	Global Geodetic Observing System - see: http://ggos.org/
 - Multi-constellations; Modernization of GPS; GNSS
 - Absolute antenna phase center
 - Progress since Bern 2004

Ideas for additional and more specific themes are welcome. This is 
intended to be a workshop covering components of the IGS, with 
certain sessions or days possibly focusing on a specific component.

Please reply until end of November if possible, so that your input 
can be considered
during the discussions at the next IGS Governing Board Meeting. The 
meeting will take place on December 4 in San Francisco just prior to 
the AGU, however, your suggestions are welcome at anytime.

On behalf of Prof. John Dow, Chair of IGS Governing Board and
	Dr. Gerd Gendt, IGS Analysis Center Coordinator

sincere regards,

IGSCB
