Hi

My thanks to people on the program team for pulling this together, especially Valeria Betancourt, who’s been handling the invitations.  The attendance list is not final but I’m flying today and wanted to get this out to the list.  There will be remote participation, so please consider joining us (times shown are Argentina).

Best

Bill
