[AniMov] Fwd: Huck paper

[Wayne Getz]

Hi All:

My former assistant, Scott Fortmann-Roe, conveyed the following to me  
in response to the latest round of emails concerning Maren's  
contributions.  As I don't program myself I don't keep track of all  
this.

Maren: Note that Scott (scottfr at gmail.com) is now in Krakow, so if you  
are in Poland, you might be able to meet him.

Best

Wayne
