From D. Latham:
Dear TESS​ Enthusiasts​
​
​I invite you to participate in the TESS Science Team meeting at MIT on Wednesday 30 September 2015 starting at 10:00 and finishing with the formal business on the same day.​  I have attached the most recent draft for the schedule of presentations.
To allow us to organize the logistics, we need to know if you plan to attend in person, via WebEx, or not at all.​  Please fill out the Doodle poll, indicating your plans.  You can edit this later if your plans change and involve participation in person.

​There will be no limit on the number of participants via WebEx, so we will send out the connection details to everyone a day or two before the meeting.​
Looking forward to seeing you all,
Dave Latham
