[ESP] Re: I will not presenting at the workshop

[Dean N. Williams]

Dear Eric,

    I deeply regret reading the below message, but I understand funding 
shortages. Thanks for letting us know that you will not be able to 
attend the Workshop. Maybe you or Chris can point me to the ESP 
prototype portal and explain to me exactly how it works, then I can 
present at the ESP Workshop? Is this an expectable option? I would hate 
to see your work not represented at the Workshop... It is an important 
component that we discussed at the last workshop.

Best regards,
    Dean
