Summary from lecture I Meson line shape modifications seen in p+A/  +A reactions: 1.E325/KEK : downward  mass shift (~ 9%) 2.E325/KEK: downward  mass shift (~3%) and broadening 3.CBTAPS : downward  mass shift (~14%) and 10-fold! broadening. Strong momentum dependece  m(p). No sensitivity to .. but  G7/CLAS: no mass shift of  (~45% broadening)  contradiction to E325/KEK but CB problem in E325?  G7/CLAS: no effect on  mass shift ... but CLAS acceptance is not sensitive to CBTAPS  no contradiction to CPTABS  New HADES GSI : will be sensitive to both  / 
