1 Comments received on the ECFA/EPS draft Guy Wormser

2 Feedback fro O. Steinkamp Cher Guy, Thank you very much for this draft, this could indeed be immensely useful. What I find missing in the " INFORMATION FOR EVALUATORS" is a clarification of which achievements one can typically expect at which step of the career. We do not want young postdocs to be rejected because they did not yet serve e.g. "in committees and boards as chair or members". Another point, in 1.2 it is mentioned that "collaborations are encouraged to keep a public record of these positions". From what I see, web pages typiclly have snapshots of the current members of various committees but do not keep a historic record of past members. Unless such full records are added, it might be better to remove this sentence from the document. Many greetings and best of luck, Olaf

3 HEPP-EPS reactions 1) The board (and some outside colleagues asked by board members) find the document very useful in its present form. 2) Motivation section, paragraph 3: The sentence 'It has become perfectly clear that,...' might be offending to non-HEP people. Consider a more cautious wording (While satisfactory evaluation procedures exist...they are not fully known...) or leave the sentence out. 3) It should be said that candidates should actively explain the relevance of their coordination tasks and/or refer to collaboration web pages. 4) Concerning the recommendations to the collaborations, in particular to keep publicly available databases of past and present coordinators and descriptions of their tasks, we need a plan how to follow up on the document and push the implementation of these recommendations.

4 Comment from U. Strauman (in German, translated by T. Lohse) My summary: part 1: the special and important role of hardware development should be mentioned (we don't just buy our instruments) part 2: - detector physicists should publish and cite each other; they should care more about their web-pages - recommendation to collaborations: make internal notes on hardware public; care more about the author lists of these notes All this is quite special for the hardware side. But maybe we can take the message that these aspects should be adequately stressed.
