VOQL-TEG Meeting #4

[Pedro Osuna]

Dear all,

please find attached the agenda for next VOQL-TEG Meeting #4 to be
celebrated on 08 Mar 2007.

Unfortunately, our Director of Science has changed the date and time to
address us on several important items related to the Agency, and this
will be happening one hour before our meeting starts. This means I might
not be able to attend the meeting, but Inaki will lead it for me.

Also unfortunately, it looks like the interesting discussions are only
happening after Kona sent her inputs recently. I think there is not time
enough to prepare our inputs for tomorrow's meeting properly, but at
least it will serve to identify issues that we might discuss at a later
stage.

Therefore, please take note of the time and procedure for the meeting,
and get ready for another interesting round...


Thanks.

Cheers,
P.
