Users' Group Meeting #18: Invitation from UG chair to contact them

The XMM Users' Group (UG) will be holding its yearly meeting this coming May 11th and 12th, at ESAC. As is usual, the UG welcomes all comments and suggestions on any relevant aspect of the XMM-Newton operations and future direction. You may send these either directly to me, or if you prefer to any member of the UG.

I would like to note the forthcoming meeting in Rome, "The X-ray Universe 2017". This symposium will provide a showcase for results, discoveries and expectations from current and future X-ray missions.

Finally, regarding the announcement of AO-17 expected later this year, I draw attention to the opportunity for applications under a new category of observing proposals, "The Multi-Year Heritage Programmes". The aim of which is to encourage visionary programmes which would not otherwise be likely to emerge because of the time constraints within a single allocation cycle. Details will be given in the AO.

Martin Ward, UG Chair
