It already incorporates a lot of the feedback we received from you during the last months, but we invite you to review the document and be as critical about it as possible. You can find both the document and the discussion in our Google group.</span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><span style="widows: 1;"><br></span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><a href="https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/dancecollab/Z-7zLhMc5OQ">https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/dancecollab/Z-7zLhMc5OQ</a></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br></div><div style="widows: 1;">Looking forward to a lively discussion after tomorrows talk and in the Google group.</div><div style="widows: 1;"><br></div><div style="widows: 1;">Oliver and Carolyn</div></body></html>
