Invited are:
- Members of the General Assembly; the members are
identical to the C4C team leaders.
- Marios Polycarpou (UCY team), as an extra member
- Pia Kempker (CWI), as temporary assistant to the coordinator,
- all other participants of the project meeting.
However, if participants who are not team leaders
prefer not to attend than that is fine with me.
Voting rights have only:
- the voting members of the General Assembly
which set is identical to that of the team leaders;
- a C4C researcher who replaces a voting member.
