Despite the fact that this beamline was one of the first at the photon factory it is still one of the few such facilities on SR sources worldwide Its high resolution capability enables it to make useful contributions to molecular spectroscopy though laser spectroscopy is beginning to be more competitive in the lower end of its energy range At energies above 10eV it will still be a unique facility for very resolution absorption spectroscopy The data it provides are definitely useful when combined with that from other techniques such as ion and photoelectron spectroscopy It is not clear what the scientific advantage will be in moving the instrument to an undulator beamline its main asset is its high resolving power and the process of moving it to an undulator beamline should not be allowed to compromise this If not already provided a stable and controlled temperature environment could be considered as an upgrade 4.
