The Pre-Team Meeting will address all possible topics related to SPMS development including manpower, procedure for enhancement requests/approval, visibility of modifications, patching notification, SPMS (infrastructure) support at critical moments, collaboration between regional centers, knowledge transfer, technical specifics/constraints (e.g. Oracle versions/upgrades, character set, coding methods). The participants will present the result of these discussions during the Team Meeting.

From the early ideas conceived at the beginning of the electronic publication era JACoW has grown to become a global collaboration serving the international accelerator community. This talk will describe the development of the collaboration from its birth (which has strong ties to BNL) and explain who and what it is today. JACoW provides much more than the website with its specialised search engine through event organisation tools (SPMS), automated proceedings production and support for conference organisers – these features will be presented. Proceedings production and the reasons for the technical requirements for preparation JACoW papers will be explained, illustrated by a number of examples. The talk will conclude with a brief look to the future in terms of development of the collaboration and its services and the question of long term archival.

The presentation will cover basic pre-conference SPMS functionality from delivery of the instance up to the conference. Activities such as proposals for invited orals, the call for papers, abstract submission, verification of classifications, and proposals for contributed oral presentation will be described, as well as how to create sessions and build programme codes, which are used by JPSP scripts to produce the back matter of the programme booklet and abstracts brochure.

This presentation will provide an overview of how the SPMS interfaces are used during the conference for the management of numerous activities relating to the scientific programme.

The Collaboration is made up of 16 accelerator conference series. Policy is decided by its Steering Committee, composed of the past, current and future SPC Chairs in each series, and everyday electronic publishing issues are decided by its Team, made up of the past, current and future editors in each series, or persons responsible for publication of the proceedings. Coordinating the activities are currently a Chair, a Deputy Chair and a Secretary. JACoW is based on good will. And that was enough when the Collaboration was smaller. Now that JACoW reaches maturity, it is time to review the situation, the Collaboration, how it functions, and its sustainability in the longer term.
