Hi,
This is a reminder for two important activities for the future of GIN:
* Please come forward with nominations for the group co-chair by Feb. 20.
* We'll have our f2f meeting for revising the charter and planning the
future on March 14. We try to have a video link available as well.
**Please register for the event at
http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=12489 **
and indicate whether you will intend to come in person (we need this
information for the site access cards). I've tentatively blocked 10:00
to 18:00 but more details on the agenda will follow.
Cheers,
-- Erwin
