Dear colleagues,
the dates of the meeting have now been fixed! We tried to involve as many people as possible, which meant splitting the meeting between Sydney and Canberra. We will meet:
March 11-12: Premeeting in Canberra, probably at the Botanical Garden. The meeting will start March 11th at 9:30 am and last for 2 full days. We plan an intensive working session to elaborate an xml- schema draft. It will be a small, but open working session. List of confirmed participants: J. Croft (probably), G. Hagedorn, B. Morris, K. Thiele, Greg Whitbread, E. Zurcher.
March 13-14: SDD meeting in Sydney at the Botanical Garden. The meeting will start March 13th at 1 pm in the afternoon
Please send direct email to g.hagedorn@bba.de if you plan to attend either meeting. This will help our friends who organize the rooms to plan the right size of room for us.
I am also collecting any specific contributions or points you want to make for an agenda.
