Hi,

Actually, whenever I turn on my computer, I go on the wiki page to check what's
new in town. And this week-end, mostly yesterday, I just wondered if you
haven't been swallowed by the wiki engine.

You did great job. Thanks for putting so much energy (and time obviously) on
that wiki. Now that you learn the wiki how to walk, we shall all make it run.

See you in Vienna,

Romain
