=== Notes (Shaul) === \\

  * SH shows noise spectra from Reijo. ** SH: Needs to find noise parameters and provide to MR and Commander.** But this is not presently on the critical path.
  * Ragnhild explains the variants of Commander: 
    * Commander 1: all frequencies have the same beam size
    * Commander 2: each band can have its own beam size
    * Commander 3: starts from TOD simulations and builds maps + accounts for foregrounds
  * MR: NILC results are driven by foreground separation not noise. MR does not expect changes in the NILC results due to the 'real' noise. Currently resolution of results are at 1 deg. Don't expect results to depend on resolution. 
  * LB is working on extending the frequency coverage to higher frequencies
  * Models to use: 90.91=d1s1, 90.92=d7s3 (this is expected to be a challenge for parametric models), MKD.
