Description
Periodic meeting of the PDF4LHC forum. In addition to status reports and updates on teh work of the fitting groups, there will be discussions on the needs of, and prospects for, more accurate PDF knowledge to match the precision of the LHC data.

NOTE: For last minute changes & updates on this agenda, please contact
Michelangelo Mangano (ADR is not available)

The meeting will be preceeded by the meeting of the LHC EW Working Group:
