Hi All,

Unfortunately, I will miss Thursday afternoon session - sorry, bad
timing on my part.
However, I would be very in favor of a "small informal SL meeting" in
advanced, possible on Wednesday. As Knut said, this could create useful
input for the public session on Thursday afternoon. So what's about a SL
lunch on Wednesday? Or sometime between last storage talk (around
16:30?) and Workshop dinner (19:00)? Any other proposal?

Urs
