[geos-devel] UVic colloquium dates

[Jens H. Jahnke]

Martin,

Let me talk with the group about this.
Don't overestimate the significance of the name "CAG" though.
This group has grown from  historically fairly narrow focus to becoming now
the "theory" group in our department. They do have Computational Geometry
researchers. Maybe you can provide me with an abstract of your application
and I will probe interest and expertise on our side.

(Hausi is on vacation right now.)
