Hello Kate, Sorry to hear you can't come to the workshop, but, yes, I'll get Alan Clapham (who has suggested this) to put something on the list to summarise the discussion afterwards.

It does sound really interesting though - especially the discussion of the use of plantatt. I wonder if someone could post a summary of what is said in that discussion on the mailing list after the meeting?
