    The schedule and topics look good to me.

    I would suggest making all agenda points a bit more specific, similarly to points 2 and 4. I believe this would help the participants to prepare better for the discussions. This applies especially to point 1, where reviews/reports will be required.

    • From my point of view, it would be particularly interesting to have a brief overview of the gravity network in each individual country — for example: how many absolute sites there are, how often they are remeasured, how many relative gravity sites exist, whether the current data are consistent with ITGRS, whether there is interest in establishing a reference station for monitoring gravity variations or for gravimeter comparisons, and whether further work is supported by national agencies. 
    • It might also be useful to include a brief update on EQUIP-G and ERIG-MEA from the ITGRF point of view.
    • Since this covers quite a lot of aspects, perhaps the presentation could be up to 10 minutes per country.

    Concerning the topics, AGRAV should also be included, perhaps within point 4.

    I would also like to open a discussion on the concept of “analysis centres”, which could possibly be included within point 3.

    Looks as a good schedule, but please add the "t" in my last name (Zwinkern)  . I agree with Vojtech that we should have a brief overview of the gravity networks in each individual country.
