Re: cal working group meeting Monday 10?

[Matthew Shepherd <mashephe@indiana.edu>]

Hi Zisis,

I will not be available on Monday since I'll be at PANIC.  I would  
prefer to delay Jake's presentation on timing resolution measurements  
until the 24th.  This gives us a little more time to study a few  
additional things.

Mihajlo has been working on creative approximations of the sqrt( - 
ln( x) ) function that is needed to implement our timing algorithm.   
He mentioned wanting to present that.  It would be interesting to get  
some input from Chris and/or Fernando as to what the capabilities of  
FADC firmware are.

-Matt
