Description
2009 will be a very challenging year for the CERN accelerator complex. The clear priority will be the LHC with a run through the winter into 2010 scheduled. The implications of this are discussed. The complex will also have to deliver beam in the normal physics schedule to a plethora of other clients. These clients are enumerated and their required beam is detailed. The machine development strategy for the year is elucidated.
