[Jerome Duriez <jerome.duriez@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Klaus and others for your inputs.

The topic looks quite specific indeed, this is to match the scientific 
themes of my new position and, hopefully, to attract more easily 
external funding (in order to keep conferences fees as low as possible).
This being said, I wish to save e.g. a half day session for other YADE 
applications.

As for the date, nothing is really locked in yet actually, except 
"Summer 2018" at its ends (it's too hot here in the middle of summer !). 
Instead of 1st half June, it could be end of August as well, thank you 
Klaus for mentioning these other conferences.
