This
site is a platform for the exchange of ideas and information, on two levels:
1.
for invited participants, to join on-line discussions and to follow up contacts
2. for interested visitors who
will be able to read, but not write, contributions to interactive areas.
In
this way online discussions will remain focussed and relevant.
