Welcome to the 45 new participants who have joined the PPR-GREN e-conference during this final session especially the 36 who were signed in today, theoretically the last but one day of the conference. 
 
I hope that you will automatically receive the introduction to the conference describing its purpose and structure and how you may contribute to it.  Looking at your names and eddresses it would seem that many or most of you appear to be from the Middle East which until now had been numerically under-represented in the conference.  Because of this we will appreciate your contributions to all sessions in order to achieve a regionally balanced viewpoint on the main objective of establishing "the network" as an advisory body to the OIE-FAO Gf-TADS PPR Working Group. To give a little more time for you to read what has been contributed and possibly to make your own contributions I propose to leave the conference open until Monday 10th rather than closing it tomorrow Friday 7th.
 
With regards,
Paul Rossiter - Moderator.
