A major thrust of the workshop was to focus attention on the R&D needed for the experimental program to be most successful in the early operations phase. Two key components were highlighted: detector developments, in particular 2-D detectors for scattering experiments that will permit read out at the LCLS repletion rate (120 Hz) and development of methods for x-ray pulse length measurement and pump laser - x-ray probe timing. These discussions as well as discussions of issues associated with the proposal process concluded with pointing to the time frame for pre-proposal submission to the LCLS Science Advisory Committee in late spring 2003.
