Dear SciFi MA paper committee: I hope the updated mailing list finds your correct e-mail address. The zeroth draft is prepared. It is in cvs (module scifimapaper), and a copy is also posted for you at http://neutrino.kek.jp/scifi/scifima/ as a pdf file in two-column and one-column format. I would like for us to read and comment on this draft in the next two weeks, and if possible schedule a video conference sometime around February 18. Please send all comments and discussion to this mailing list. Two important comments about this draft: I have quoted a combined result. I will be finalizing this result of the combined fit shortly, but the number there temporarily (1.18) is an average of the K2K-I and K2K-IIa value, and will be updated. Also, that number uses the newest vector form factors. Finally, there are two sections: proton rescattering and comparison with other experiments that are not complete. I think everything else is prepared and proofread. Also, some of the plots will need to be updated, but the intention is clear in all cases, and no plots are missing. The people receiving this e-mail are: Gran, Jeon, Iwashita, Andringa, Yokoyama, Ishida, Walter. If you think you have received this e-mail in error, please let us know. I look forward to working with you as we prepare this publication. Cheers, --Rik (5 Feburary 2005)
