[Rivet] Rivet dev sprint session

I have to second Hendrik's concern about availability of us Sherpas
then. But I had a second thought: Since at least some of us (Andy,
Hendrik, myself) are going to be at CERN on Nov 19/20, why not stay
for a couple more days for a Rivet sprint? That probably means we
can't use your IPPP money for travel though, so if others can't make
it to CERN those days, then it might even be a good option to have a
second sprint in Durham the week afterwards to follow up? (I'm afraid
I can't be away for (half of) two consecutive weeks in term, due to
both teaching and family, so I would only be there for the CERN one.)

Cheers,
Frank
