I don't think we're ready for this yet, but feel free to think about this. If anyone can think of a project, go ahead and write your thoughts to the list - be creative! And don't worry about your ideas being crazy. Starting off from a crazy idea and playing with it can often yield a good idea... Which is better than no ideas at all...

Dear Colleague,
The ASTROVIRTEL Project, supported by the European Commission and managed by the ST-ECF on behalf of ESA and ESO, is aimed at enhancing the scientific return of the ST-ECF/ESO Archive. It offers the possibility to European Users to exploit it as a virtual telescope, retrieving and analysing large quantities of data with the assistance of archive operators and scientific personnel. The first two cycles of operation of the ASTROVIRTEL project are almost completed and some interesting results have already been achieved and published [see http://www.stecf.org/astrovirtel/publications.html]
We are now announcing the Third Call for ASTROVIRTEL Proposals. Detailed instructions for the submission of proposals can be found at http://www.stecf.org/astrovirtel/.
The deadline for submission is June 17th, 2002.
ASTROVIRTEL is an initiative financed by the European Commission under the scheme "Enhanced Access to Large Infrastructures" and therefore is open to European scientists from EC Member and Associated States [for a list of these states, see http://www.stecf.org/astrovirtel/ECStates.html].
Do not hesitate to contact us if you need further information. The ASTROVIRTEL email address is astrovirtel@eso.org .
Best regards,
Piero Benvenuti, Head / ST-ECF Peter Quinn, Head / DMD
