[Wien] wien2k workshop

[Peter Blaha]

Dear wien2k users,

This is some information about our wien2k workshop in April in Trieste, 
in particular to those of you who were rejected.

For this workshop we had money for 20 supported participants from 3rd 
world countries and because of the computer infrastructure a limit of 50 
total participants.

However we had almost 350 applications in total, many of them asking for 
support. It was therefore a tough decision how to select the 
participants and I apologize to all of you, who were rejected. It was 
simply impossible to accept (and fund) all applications, ad we had to 
consider the references, poster presentation, scientific experience, but 
also gender and diversity of nationality.

I'm looking forward to see those of you who were selected in Trieste and 
hope the others understand the difficulty and are not too depressed.

Best regards

Peter Blaha
