<br>
On Tuesday you spoke of a new course concept. I am very interested in <br>
it, regardless of the language problem. (Maybe for the time being it is <br>
possible to translate single modules.)<br>
I myself would also find it quite exciting to get to know a little more <br>
about this development process. Maybe even more people from the chapters <br>
will do the same.<br>
<br>
About the monthly get-together-meetings: the Frankfurt people mention, <br>
besides the personal contact and the subsequent visit to the pub, above <br>
all, that staying on the topic is an important point for them.<br>
Greetings from Frankfurt<br>
Ruth<br>
<br>
