There will likely be a report on anything significant at the CGSIC meeting in Savannah the week after next <http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/cgsic/meetings/49thmeeting/49th_CGSIC_Meeting_Agenda.htm >.

It's impressive that civil GPS discussions reach back through so many meetings. Any idea when the 1st CGSIC meeting was held? The last five such meetings have been annual, but I'm not having much luck clicking through the site for earlier info. GPS as a project dates back to the mid-70's, right? With completion in the early 90's? Presumably they met more frequently early on, but that still seems like a lot of meetings (for just the civil sub-community) to squeeze in.

I'm sensitive (really) to the concerns expressed in the title of this talk:

Why leap seconds are difficult to get right for an equipment vendor – Sam Stein, Symmetricom, Inc.

but the system engineering question here is backwards. First, discover the requirements. Second, figure out how to meet them. That said, I hope the presentations will be posted online.
