WIYN Queue Program: Spring 1995 Outcome (1Sep95)
(from KPNO, NOAO Newsletter No. 43, September 1995)

Our thanks to all Kitt Peak proposers who were awarded "shared risk"
WIYN queue observing time for the spring 1995 observing semester.
Alas, the commencement of WIYN science operations, and especially
MOS/Hydra operations, slipped to a much later date than we had
anticipated in July 1994 when we decided to solicit WIYN proposals for
the first time. By the time WIYN observing did start, the monsoons
essentially wiped out the rest of the "spring" semester.

We recognize that many of you put a significant amount of time and
energy into your proposals and we truly regret that we were unable to
initiate, let alone complete, any of your programs. We appreciate your
patience and all the useful input we have received from you over the
last year. We look forward to working with all of you in the future,
especially proposers who were allocated time in the fall 1995 WIYN
queue.
