Abstract: This note examines several Machine-Detector Interface (MDI) issues for the Compton polarimeters in the Beam Delivery System of the International Linear Collider (ILC), including i) alignment tolerances, ii) impact of crossing angle and IR magnets on spin alignment, iii) Z-pole operation, and iv) costs and conventional facilities.

Note: Presented at the Workshop on Polarization and Energy Measurements at the ILC, held April 9-11, 2008 at DESY-Zeuthen.
