Review objectives:
------------------------
The main goal of the review this time would be to 

        1.1  Very short summary of 2008 activities 
        1.2  Plans for 2009 in view of the schedule discussed in Chamonix
        1.3  Clear Picture of the current Performance compared to TDR anticipated one  
        1.4  List of pending issues for 2009 running
  
  Concerning 1.3, during the last LHCC there were few points we should address during this meeting 

          *  How the detector now perform compared to TRD  
          *  How  the computing model for the experiments have been evolved
          *  Efforts carried out by experiments to optimize the performance of their software

        - 2008 summary and 2009 plans
        - Current status/performance vs Computing TDR
        - It is particularly relevant to get a clear picture on how close the experiments are now to their original TDR  operational model/ancitipated performance
        - Include role and use of CAF
