• The ALMA Proposal Review Process at Cycle 8 will use a dual-anonymous procedure. The guidelines for how to anonymize your proposal are online.
• When requesting simultaneous observations of 12m and 7m configurations, you cannot use 12m configuration of long baselines. Simultaneous observations are only available through C-6.
