Hi everyone,

I've already been in direct contact with many of you about our plan for 
a Rivet development workshop in Scotland in September. The focus will be 
on finishing off some long-running projects like automatic handling of 
multi-weight events, and on kickstarting BSM uses of the tool by honing 
the new detector smearing features, connecting with other BSM pheno 
tools, and hopefully starting some productive collaborations.

Our planned venue is a very nice ye olde Scottish castle overlooking the 
beautiful west coast near Oban, about 2.5 hours from Glasgow:

I was there recently and it was a great place for isolation from the 
usual diet of meetings, and also as a start-point for anyone interested 
in exploring further north... or just as far as the Oban distillery 
according to taste ;-)  Fingers crossed that we can get more weather 
like this: https://goo.gl/photos/i6tLCTDzMi5FVXkE7

The plan is for a 3-day meeting, either Monday afternoon to Thursday 
lunchtime, or Tuesday-to-Friday with the same times. Partial attendance 
is also fine, but please come for as much as you can. We hope to be able 
to cover a large proportion of your local accommodation and food costs, 
depending on the attendance. But we need to finalise the dates as soon 
as possible, hence this email and the Doodle link below; please complete 
it (and/or forward to others you know to be interested) asap:

I hope several of you will be able to attend, and that we can make it a 
productive meeting both for doing and for coming up with new ideas and 
plans :-)

Best wishes,
Andy
