RE: Krakow2001

Hello
	I am watching this correspondance with great interest and growing
depression. It seems to be paralleling similar crossing and counter crossing
of e-mails in the lead up to Nancy. Then there seemed to be too many people
in too many countries organising, advising, inviting, everything-ing at one
point, so that for a while Dusan and I were not quite sure what we were
supposed to be doing. In the end we put together a microsymposium which did
not really satisfy either of us.

Some one with absolute authority MUST allocate to Ton (as Chirman of comsig)
the number of microsymposia sessions he wants AND THEN LET HIM organise the
chairs, speakers and topics with people he chooses. Ton is a good listener
and a careful thinker. He will be able to select a good program which will
satisfy small and large structure interests. Macromolecular interests are
strongly represented in comsig - a balanced show can be put on. If the
macromolecular people want to do something in addition to the comsig
sessions, that is another issue easily resolved by additional symposia.
