Dear Colleague,
Here is the (more or less final) programme of our workshop. Please
publicise it to colleagues you think might be interested.
A registration form is included at the end of the programme. When I
receive this I will send you a map and other details.
May I ask the participants listed below to let me have a formal title
and brief outline, by 20 February, so that I can circulate these.
(Papers should last no longer than 25 mins, with 5 mins for questions.)
Looking forward to seeing everyone!
Hilary
