Electronic Submission

UK - no scheme has yet been set up to collect UK applications electronically. With the current experiments running on the International applications, it is hoped to include the UK batch within a couple of semesters.

CN - HIA, Victoria has the ability to accept electronic submissions. Please refer to local information about formats.

NL - these applications are routinely collected electronically at University of Groningen for processing. They are FTP'ed to JAC. Please refer to local information about formats.

Int - for the first time the JCMT is experimenting with an electronic system that is a modified version of the HST submission procedures. Please bear with us during this phase. Assuming the system works successfully then we will expand the format to include all applications from all partners, certainly the UK. Fear not, however we experiment, your submissions will not be lost! See below for further details.

International Electronic Submission

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. Following text 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 - 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.
