Dear collegues

as has been announced at the TDWG meeting in Sydney we are planning 2 workshops in March 2002 to discuss the topic that remain open during the email discussions.

Karen Wilson and Nicolas Bailly have informed me that the dates of the other meetings are fixed.

For the Workshop in Sydney the best dates seem to be the 13-14 March 2002. Please inform me if you think that we should try to find another date that fits into the BioForum 2 schedule (see http://plantnet.rbgsyd.gov.au/bioforum/index.html)

For Paris, we may have a choice between the 6. and 10. of March. Please send me a direct mail (g.hagedorn@bba.de) if you are considering attending this extra 1 day workshop in Paris, and write which day you would prefer.

I wish all of you a very nice Christmas celebration and holiday, Best wishes
