[Klaus Thoeni <klaus.thoeni@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi guys!

Actually I am sitting in New Zealand working with Cedric Lambert. A meeting 
would be difficult :-)

However, there is no hurry since I just started with yade and for now the first 
step will be to implement the approach followed by David Bertrand (just using 
single particles).

Thanks

Klaus
