The limitations and ways to overcome them will be discussed,
as well as new approaches and high statistics projections.
We will concentrate on ways to estimate the SM uncertainties
in all these modes and theoretical and experimental ways to reduce
them.

(ππ), quasi-two-body (Q2B) Bdecays
(ρρ, ρπ) and Dalitz analysis
(πππ).
- New results ? New modes ?
- How can we get to φ2
(α) from the different measurements?
How good is the Q2B approximation ? How important are
S-wave contribution ( and other interference) in modes involving
ρ ?
- How trustable are theoretical calculations of the penguin pollution?
- φ1
(β) modes:
φK0,
η'K0,
f0K0,
π0Ks,
K+K-Ks, KsKsK0 and more.
- New results ? New modes ?
- Possible deviation from
sin2φ1
(sin2β) within the SM ?
What are the methods one can use to calculate them and how these
methods can be checked?
- Can the sign of the deviation be obtained ?
- Are there correlations between the deviation in these modes ?
Are there observables or combinations of observables that
have smaller SM uncertainties (sums, ratios etc. ) ?

(γ, electroweak penguins).
- What can be learnt in addition from
πK* and
ρK* modes ?
- Comparison and assessment of theoretical approaches based on
factorization and/or flavor symmetries.
- What are the theoretical assumptions?
- Which amplitudes are included in the calculations, and what
is the estimated theoretical error ?
- Perform comparative studies for "benchmark" modes.
- How predictive are data-driven fits ?
