Dear Cesare,
I have to say that I have been thinking further about this and I am not yet
confident that we have enough focus. I am not yet clear how what will take
place will involve the public, or how in  very practical ways it will BE
public. For example: are we offering food to the 3,000 people who will be
gallery that day. In general: what is the intellectual focus and how will it
be addressed? I am not sure we have much of a proposal here, beyond what was
originally sketched. I don't mind postponing this till a later stage, but
let me give you the weekend and then see what the situation is on Monday.
Sorry about this, but I have to know what I am doing with public money.
Dominic

dear dominic,
I think your press release is ok; probably you have a better sense of how a
title for such event should be.
it's also ok to put names afterwards, once we have decided who will be the
other participants, and in which form each one will participate..
but we definetely would prefer the "east room" space that, given your
description, seems to be absolutely appropriate for the event.
don't you agree?
ciao,
cesare
