=== Specification for the RDR ===

The Reference Design Report (RDR) will be a complete summary of the Neutrino Factory accelerator complex and neutrino detector systems developed by the IDS-NF colalboration.  The RDR is conceived as a 50-page docuemnt with appendices.  It will be published in full or with the appendices posted in the arXiv and referenced in the 50-page document.

The top-level structure of the RDR will be:
 * Top matter (including author list)
 * Section 1: Introduction
 * Section 2: Physics motivation
 * Section 3: Accelerator report
 * Section 4: Detector report
 * Section 5: Conclusions
 * Bottom matter
 * Appendices:
  * A: Physics appendices 
  * B: Accelerator appendices
  * C: Detector appendices
  * D: “Progect appendices”:
   * Costing
   * Incremental development

The timeline for the preparation is presented in the following figure:

Where the milestones for the RDR preparation (the lower section of the figure) are:

 * D1: First complete draft;
 * S1: Submit to arXiv;
 * S2: Submit to journal;
 * WS1: First RDR writing w/s; and
 * WS2: Second RDR writing w/s.
