    Dear all, 
    
    As some of you may know, I've been assigned the task of formulating
    and developing the framework for the BRAHMS databases. Due to the
    upcomming DAQ test on from the 15. this month, and again around the
    28., I was asked to finish (at least partly) this work this
    week. However, due to some unforseen technical difficulties I'll
    proberly not finish until Monday or Tuesday the comming week. At that
    time, I will commit the code into the BRAT CVS repository. 
    
    However, I would like for every detector group to make a list of what
    kind of calibration data should be in the database. The list should
    contain: 
    	 * A type definition of the detector (e.g., TOF, TRACK, etc.) 
    	   and a name of the prinicipel maintainer, including email
    	   adress, and institute. 
    	 * A list of all sub-components, and thier types (e.g., for H1
    	   40 slats, giving 80 PMT tubes, named like PMTT<x> and
    	   PMTB<x>)  
             * What kind of data each type of sub components will put into
    	   the database (e.g. three parameters for sleeving
    	   corrections for each PMT etc.)
    	 * An outline of the calibration process for the individual
    	   sub-component types. This info will serve to guide the
    	   choice of internal database formats. 
    This information should be mailed to me (cholm@nbi.dk), and preferably
    also posted on the individual detector pages of the primary BRAHMS web
    site. I may later on ask you to provide some C++ classes for the
    database. Ofcourse I'll provide you with some sort of skeleton for
    this later on.  
        
    Yours,
