I am involved in helping host RMS in Edinburgh but someone else Harry is 
liasing with RMS as far as Edinburgh goes so he does not get overwhelmed 
by several differnet people involved in hosting him discussing 
arrangements. He has several other engagements arranged not publicly 
listed such as a non-public speech he's doing 9am on the 26th as part of 
the ICSE (international software engineering conference), and informal 
meetings with people as well as seeing Edinburgh which he has not been 
to before.

I would guess myself that  it would be too late and undesireable to 
arrange anything inbetween those dates set out, but I can't speak for 
RMS or other date organisers.

We are having meeting in Edinburgh tonight to finalise Edinburgh hosting 
arrangements. I am happy to email my phone number to anyone who wants it.

cheers,

Micah

According to Hartmut Pilch, who's just been in E. Europe with RMS, there 
may be time to fit in another patents talk too.

Maybe London on the 21st ?

Or something between Dublin and Edinburgh ?

I haven't been directly in touch with RMS, so I don't know what his 
movements/arrangements are in the UK.  (Ciaran, do you know any more?)

Would this be possible / a good idea ?
