I don't know Michel Sanner. I've seen he's using a molecular
package, just what Konrad was developping at first. But I can
contact him if I know what's going on for invited speakers.

I certainly cannot say to a speaker "come" if I don't know what
are the arrangments with organization. Is there some money to
make people come ? Who's defining priorities ? Who's holding
the pen to say yes/no ?
