§ 10. Thanks

I would like to thank all of the participants, and most especially those who invested the considerable time and energy necessary to prepare formal presentations to the workshop, for their highly informative contributions. In retrospect, there were some defects in the design of the workshop, which were entirely my fault. Primarily, we simply did not have adequate time to address the wide range of important issues on the agenda. Nevertheless, the high quality of the contributions by the participants, and their tolerance of my unreasonable expectations, gave us some valuable substance from this effort.
