Context
The breadth of science possible with NIFS is critically dependent on how many interesting objects have both high enough surface brightness to measure and have the necessary AOWFS and OIWFS guide stars. This issue is being actively pursued through the development of lists of actual observing targets. RSAA is continuing to develop the NIFS design and has already begun duplicating NIRI components for use in NIFS. The NIFS Critical Design Review is scheduled for February 2001 when the breadth of potential science and the final spectrograph design will be reviewed. Commissioning on Gemini North is currently scheduled for early 2003.
