The Steering Committee makes strategic decisions about core developments in the TANGO collaboration. There is one representative from each institute who has signed the Tango Controls Collaboration Contract. The representative is the person who is highest in each institutes’s hierarchy and has sufficient technical knowledge about TANGO. This representative should have enough power to decide on allocating resources to developing software for TANGO. To ensure that the right decisions are made and match those of the user community, advice must be sought by the committee from their respective users and developers on a regular basis. There are 2 types of members of the TANGO Controls Steering Committee Members: Core members who contribute financially to the maintenance of TANGO and who commit at least 6 months of an engineer annually to develop and commit source to the TANGO Controls core projects or Contributing members who contribute to the financing of the maintenance of TANGO. Both members normally use TANGO and write and share TANGO device classes with the community. The current TANGO Controls Steering Committee member representatives are: Chairman: Andy Götz (ESRF) ALBA (core) - David Fernandez, deputy Guifre Cuni ELETTRA (core) - Claudio Scafuri ESRF (core) - Andy Götz, deputy Jean-Michel Chaize SOLEIL (core) - Alain Buteau DESY (contributing) - Thorsten Kracht, deputy Teresa Nunez INAF (contributing)- Cristina Knapic MAX-IV (contributing)- Vincent Hardion SOLARIS (contributing)-Wojciech Kitka Coordinator Jean-Michel Chaize (ESRF) The last meeting of the Steering Committee was organized by the Arcetri Astrophysical Observatory, a member of INAF (National Institute for AstroPhysics) in Florence on the 6th of June 2017 (before the TANGO Meeting).
