ESO Phase III Submission Process - milestones and deadlines

From ESO (Magda Arnaboldi; 31st Jan 2012) - the SSDR1 

"The Archive Science group (ASG) is planning the milestone for the  submission of data products on June 15, 2013. The detailed instruction for the Spectroscopic Surveys DR1 (SSDR1 for short) will be circulated by ASG in April and the validator tool for the data format and the metadata validation will be available for download from the Phase 3 web pages soon after that. The SSDR1 milestone date has been chosen so that both ESO spectroscopic surveys can submit their products at the same time."

Update : SSDR1 submission process opens on 15 June 2013, and closes on 31 July 2013.
