Dear Phil,

     I suppose that this person would need to attend the meeting of the 
committee on bionomenclature. Where and when will that be? And given 
that the ISPN has little financing, that person would need to finance 
himself, I suppose. That would be a problem for me, as the grant support 
has been dwindling steadily in France, in the last few years. So, I 
think that we need to know where and when the next meeting will be, and 
if any of us is interested in attending that meeting.

     Cheers,

     Michel
