Dear DAL running participants and others,

Thank you very much for this successful and efficient running meeting.
It is good to finally see this spectral line case evolving. Of course, 
there are
still work to do (thank you in advance to Nicolas and Markus) but we now 
have a
clearer path to follow.

I have just finished to update our notes:

For those who participated, don't hesitate to complete (or correct) them
directly. I will keep, and then post on the wiki, a final frozen copy of 
them
next week.

Best regards,
Grégory
