Dear Bob
thanks for reply and for answering my questions.    (01)

I have been trying to post to the wiki yesterday but we need to
unblock an IP issue
before I can create my account (working with Peter on that)    (02)

Thanks a lot, I saw that, but I could not find links to any work being
actually produced or published, unless I missed something    (04)

BRILLIANT - I LOOK FORWARD TO DOING THE READING BUT CANNOT FIND THE LINKS
MAY I SUGGEST WE START A LIBRARY OF RESOURCES  AND PERHAPS A
CONTROLLED VOCABULARY TO THIS EFFECT?

I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THIS FOR WEEKS NOW, CAUSE I AM SUBMITTING A
PAPER THIS WEEKEND, BUT DID NOT FIND MUCH! ANY REASON WHY THE STUFF IS
NOT COMING UP ON SEARCHES FORM ANY DATABASES?
I LOOK FORWARD TO BE ATTENDING THE SESSION, IN FACT, I'D LIKE TO JOIN
THE PANELISTS, HOW DO I SIGN MYSELF UP? I HAVE NOT SEEN A CALL, OR
MAYBE HAVE I MISSED IT? I MAY HAVE OTHER PEOPLE INTERESTED IN JOINING
FROM OTHER PROJECTS THAT I AM WORKING ON.
