JCMT Newsletter No. 11 (Electronic Submission)
Electronic Submission Update
Canadian and Netherlands Applications
HIA, Victoria and the University of Groningen respectively have the ability to accept electronic submissions. Please refer to local information about formats. Shortly after the PATT deadline all applications are FTP'ed to the JAC and combined with the UK
and International applications.
UK and International Applications
1 - to obtain the most recent JCMT application template, send an email to
jcmtprop@jach.hawaii.edu with the phrase 'request templates' as the Subject.
Any subsequent text in the email will be ignored. All neccessary files will be
emailed back to you.
2 - complete the Latex template as instructed in the header section. There
are only minor modifications to this template from the one that you have
already been using. These changes are neccessary because, at some later
date, we intend to automatically parse the returned file to generate the
tables and files that the TAGs require.
3 - email the completed Latex template back to 'jcmtprop'. You are also
required to submit a Postscript version of your application. Each
submission will be acknowledged and several people here will be informed
of its arrival.
4 - the system is setup to attempt to spot duplicate entries or revised submissions. If
you submit applications with identical PI, collaborators and title they will be treated
as the same applications. The latest submission will over-write previous versions.
5 - if you do not wish to play with the electronic system, you may still, for
this semester, submit your hard copies through the usual route to PATT
Secretariat in Swindon, UK.
