Q & A:
- Q: You proposed that 30 people would attend. How flexible is this number given the large number of people that will likely want to attend?
- A: Based on Kate & Katey's experience at a Lorentz Center workshop (Kate as organizer, Katey as attendee), we believe that we have the experience to be able to run a successful workshop with ~50 people and will expand our workshop group to a 50-person cap should we find that our workshop is popular.

- Q: You have 20+ people on the SOC list, how is there going to be room for them all to attend?
- A: Our SOC list was designed to be an inclusive "super-list", listing those who would be interested in such a workshop, and we plan on drawing on that super-list both to determine members of the SOC, as well as invited speakers and discussion leaders in order to ensure diversity of experiences and scientific expertise.

- Q: How are you going to ensure that the involved STScI staff are not concurrently the ones who are driving the JWST science discussions?
- A: To explicitly address this, we will be appointing external (non-STScI) discussion leads for the 3rd day of the workshop, who will be tasked with leading discussion and summarizing the consensus of the group.
