MOS Design Submission Deadlines: Semester 2003B

This page contains the deadlines for completing Phase II MOS designs for GMOS-North and GMOS-South. These deadlines are set close to the scheduled instrument runs and take into account the time required for MOS design checking, mask cutting and mask shipment. Failure to adhere to these deadlines will likely mean that your observations will not be executed in the subsequent instrument block (see the semester schedule for instrument availability). Please ensure that the latest version of the mask design software is used.
