<div>Dear All,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I just saw this for the first time. Some of you who live in the UK or Europe may wish to attend this workshop. As I read their blurb I suspect that much of what we have developed, and much of what we have learned, will be directly applicable. If any
of you can go I would like to hear the outcome. I separately reached out to the organizers to let them know of our existence and to tell them a little about what we have done.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Regards, Peter</div>
