Conveners for the working groups have been selected. The working groups started their preparatory meetings (individual or joint) from beginning of July. Schedule of the meetings is be posted here.

Charge to the conveners

Form the working group, inviting colleagues to make sure that all needed expertise is represented.
Before the workshop, conduct several phone meetings of your working group (or joint with other WGs), to discuss the issues, define specs, solutions, etc. Minutes must be posted promptly.
Conveners (all or at least one) should attend the phone meetings of other working groups to be aware of other group work, to convey the specs and to hear the feedback.
Suggest the schedule of corresponding plenary presentations and of the parallel sessions.
Run the working group at the workshop.
