The respective implementation priorities of the Open and the Guaranteed time programmes have been adjusted several times since launch by the Science Working Team. At its December 2001 meeting, the Science Programme Committee (SPC) of ESA recommended to accelerate the completion of the Guaranteed Time programme.
