Dear All,
Although MS1054 is very dear to me, I must strongly object to
considering MS1054. There are two, in my opinion, important reasons
for that.
First, the project is not all about supernovae and MS1054 has been
already studied to death with ACS and WFPC2 and hence little new cluster
science will come out of this (it already has two good weak lensing
analyses published on it).
Second, the proposal focused on higher redshift clusters. If we were
to go this low (in redshift I mean), I am sure Mike would have
some interesting RCS clusters to consider instead. Clusters such as
MS1054 are not unique provided you sample enough volume...
Cheers,
Henk
