Summary:

This set of papers touches upon some of the issues and problems to be considered and resolved as the NAA program takes form. It will be noted that there are certain inconsistencies across papers. This should not be of concern, since their major purpose is to assure a full and effective discussion of issues before specific program characteristics are set. The reader is invited to single out those issues of particular interest before arrival at the Organizing Conference, so he or she may decide which of several discussion groups to join.
