Well, I'll try to be there to assist (do be sure to send a reminder here
;-), but I'll be going on a holiday in two hours so I don't really have much
time to spend planning... Furthermore, from the 24th to the 26th I'll also
be away, so I'm quite busy this month ;-). But, as said, I'll try to be
there, and perhaps when I get back (the 19th) I can prepare something, if
someone wants to collaborate :)
