The BIRS setting of a quiet retreat with communal meals proved a great opportunity to get to know the leaders in the field. I was able to speak informally to many researchers whom I had previously known only through their published works. It seems likely that Gennagy El and I will begin a new collaboration precisely on the topic of the conference.
