Good idea. Let's do it.=20

We could make a "computing session" and an "application session" (not
parallel, please !) ?=20

I would have a few things to show around geographical and spatial
analysis, all built within Xlispstat ; several prototypes :=20
ARPEGE', the Distogram, the MeAdian.

I'm sure we'll be numerous to come in Spain in April, for instance. What
is your opinion ? Who is ready to go ?

We can look for publishing the proceeedings somewhere and preparing the
book we intended to ?
