hi Bruno and all,

for sure we could find funds for coffee breaks and such. the reason i was mentioning a more detailed 
budget was that in one of the telecons it was mentioned organising something more in the spirit of a 
school. this would require lecturers and/or invited speakers... so for this sort of event some more 
funds would be required. is this something worth considering, or shall we stick to the format used 
in the previous meetings?

thanks,
Miguel
