Andy, Casey,
I had put these bodies into the Science Issues section for completeness - and no one objected. We have had a presentation on a proposed JPL rendezvous mission to Triton at our first meeting. While I agree that these bodies are not the small bodies that I am interested in, we do have Pluto and KBOs as well. In this light the large icy satellites are not necessarily out of place in SBAG. I would be perfectly happy to put pointers to an OPAG report if needed, but I do not see a great problem in having an overlap with OPAG either.

Joe,
I second Andy's question - these objects are some of the prime focus items of the OPAG group and their
next flagship mission, and we have plenty on our plate.

Just curious what this part implies:

Presumably we're not taking on Ganymede/Titan/Triton/etc in the small bodies roadmap?
