[AISPC] Programme

[Douglas Onyango]

George, et al,
At the thematic level, the idea of splitting days out to particular
themes is definitely good.

I wonder how many training tracks though we have been running ---
wondering if 4 is ideal, more or less....... I wouldn't like to end up
in a situation where the meeting is too packed with content to benefit
the majority of attendees.

Also you know the devil is  in the details, so I will be waiting to
comment once we drill down to the next level of details.

Regards,

Life is the educator's practical joke in which you spend the first
half learning, and the second half learning that everything you
learned in the first was a joke.
