Dear Augusto,
Regarding the risk loan approach for FORTE'2002. The paragraph does not say exactly what we agreed on.
What was agreed is the following: - if the fixed costs are <= 5,000 Euros, then 100% cover - if the fixed costs are > 5,000 and <= 10,000 Euros, then cover = 5,000 Euros - if the fixed costs are above 10,000 Euros, then 50% cover
The third item is not present in the minutes.
Best regards, Guy
Excerpt from the minutes: "TC6 agreed to experiment the risk loan approach with one conference. This conference is FORTE/PSTV'2002 in the USA. As organisers requested full cover of the risks, TC6 agreed that this can be done until the maximum amount of 5,000 Euro. G.Leduc will communicate this to the conference organisers. The profit taken by IFIP will be equal to the percentage of the loan relative to the fixed expenses of the conference. If the full risk is taken, all the profit of the conference, if any, will return to IFIP. The organisers have to present a detailed budget, which will be analysed by P.Nedkov (IFIP executive director), D.Khakhar (IFIP treasurer) and G.Leduc (TC6/WG6.1 chair). These three people have to agree on the budget before the loan is given. The organisers should be told that IFIP reserves the right of auditing the conference accounting if judged necessary."

Dear TC6 members,
We had a very good meeting in Cape Town. We could close a few open issues and discussed some strategic aspects for the TC6 future. I attach the meeting minutes to this mail. In separate mails you will get some other TC6 documents that were updated in the meeting.
Once again, I would like to thank Koos Koen for his kind invitation to set the TC6 meeting in South Africa.
Best regards
Augusto Casaca
