Hello all,

NEW PAPER Did you see this? http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v533/n7603/full/533321c.html

COLLECTING NAMES I have also identified two more contacts for out name collection, will add them to the table directly. I have also made empty lines for the contacts you need to provide, look for your name and the yellow color here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Byyg7vYAqPoWCdkI_wU6PLsycQw6nq4J4ZSx.... Would be great to fix this before we Skype at the end of May.

ACTION REQUIRED Please remember to vote for Skype call http://doodle.com/poll/rdedcdxt2qg8firf (Melodie, Gregory, John) and to send the travel authorisation formhttp://links.gbif.org/travel_guidelines.pdf for your Leipzig trip (Gregory, John - form missing and Melodie - correction only).

COMMUNICATION Gregory, I am not sure I am using the correct e-mail address that you check frequently - I wonder if these group e-mails and reminders reach you? Please confirm, otherwise I will try to skype or call you to make sure that communication is in order.

Best regards,
