In this report the authors have examined the potential of e{sup +}e{sup {minus}} colliders to achieve very high luminosity. Existing design studies of B-factories and {phi}-factories provided representative parameters that formed the starting point for their discussions. After examining these parameters, they considered what their limitations were and assessed what luminosity enhancement was possible by pushing the limits further than was deemed suitable for ail initial machine proposal. Several alternative approaches to high luminosity were also discussed. Given that they are attempting to enhance the collider luminosity by several orders of magnitude over today`s machines, there are some issues that will require R and D to confirm parameter choices and optimize designs. They have identified several areas where R and D activities are deemed appropriate and outlined the requisite tasks. Besides the technology R and D, they wish to emphasize that new approaches to high-luminosity colliders will require a more generalized R and D effort in accelerator physics. To ensure a viable future for high-energy physics accelerators, it is essential that such R and D be properly supported.
