[Terhi Honkola]

Dear all,



This is a friendly reminder of the upcoming symposium next Wednesday with
an updated program.



Apologies for sending the information so late to the ura-list community; I
forgot that an email with an attachment would get stuck to the spam filter
of the list so here's the info without an attachment.



Welcome all!



Best wishes,

Terhi Honkola
