    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
