Abstract The International Chart Working Group
(hereafter termed ICWG) is a team of expert chart and sequence makers drawn
from the American Association of Variable Star Observers (AAVSO), The British
Astronomical Association Variable Star Section (BAA VSS), and various other
individuals that set out in 2000 to tackle what was then a chaotic situation
with regards to sequences. This presentation is a summary of the group's work
undertaken primarily during the years 2000-2003.
