RE: [e4-dev] Introduction::UFace, PMF & Flowr

Hi Hallvard/All,

>> And Jim, Norway is a wonderful place to ski, although it is still a bit
>> early with short days. What kind of skiiing do you do, downhill or snowboard?

Downhill, but currently it is mostly son-to-son ( I have four sons aged 2-5-7-9).
In the past I visited Norway (Oslo and south coast) and liked it very much.

Does everyone have time to meet before EclipseCon and what week would be best?
For me week 9-12 is ok except March 3rd and 16th.

Regards,

Jim
