[Qgis-psc] Traveling to the 's-Hertogenbosch

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Régis,

Uff - that sounds bad - the broken ribs ... I had a bruised rib once and 
it hurt quite a bit. I can only imagine how several broken ribs feel.

Hope you can recover soon!

About remote interaction: if you have any specific suggestions that can 
help for remote participation, please let us know. We should have the 
usual communication channels we always have.

Greetings,

Andreas
