1. Introduction
---------------
All results and input files are available at 

  http://www.slac.stanford.edu/xorg/hfag/semi/winter05/winter05.shtml

In the  following (in  no particular order),  the updates for Winter 2005 
with respect to Summer 2004 are discussed.




2. Changes to common parameters
-------------------------------
We use the updated input parameters for mixing and lifetimes from the
HFAG Winter 2005 update. 



3. New measurements
-------------------

Two measurements of BF(B0 -> D*- l+ nu) and Vcb*F(1) / rho2 have gone 
from preliminary to published, namely (DELPHI) Eur.Phys.J.C33:213,2004 
and (BABAR) Phys.Rev.D71:051502,2004.

Two measurements of BF(B -> X l+ nu) have gone from preliminary to
published, namely (CLEO) Phys.Rev.D70:032003,2004 and (BABAR)
 Phys.Rev.D69:111104, 2004.  These are based on measurements of the 
electron energy moments and are taken to replace the previous CLEO 
and BABAR results.
