[Rivet] Rivet dev/BSM workshop registration

[Philippe Gras]

Hi Andy,

sorry for the late answer. I will be happy to come to the workshop and 
to contribute to the code. I'm more involved in SM analysis, but I will 
discuss beforehand with BSM group conveners of CMS. I have still some 
involvement in a BSM analysis, and I would be interested in implementing 
an analysis, a PhD student from our group is working on, as an example. 
Let me know if it's fine with you and if I can still register.

Cheers,

Philippe.
