Hi Gerrit,

It was great to see you in Geneva. I'm delighted you made it, and I'm
really glad Todd found 15 minutes in the afternoon for you to talk about
this project. Thank you so much for taking the lead on this, and for
moving it forward. It's a great contribution you're making to the
community.

I'm sorry we never caught up in Frankfurt. Every time I passed your
stand, you were fully engaged in conversation. See you at
JATS-Con!

Best,

Bruce
