[2009-program-committee] Shortage of speakers for the Congress

[Maryann Martone]

Sorry David.  I had meant to ask you about Giorgio Ascoli.  I had  
invited him to my session and he had accepted;  then he said he  
accepted you as well.  Can we have shared speakers?

I've gotten confirmation from Alan Routenberg and Tim Clarke for my  
session.
