Abstract
Though free-electron lasers have long had the potential for high average power, only recently has significant progress towards this goal been evident. This paper summarizes some of the issues that all high average power free-electron lasers must contend with and will show how researchers have addressed these problems as encountered in four different approaches. Progress and problems in each of these programs are summarized and the paths towards even higher power are discussed
