Hi Annette
Sorry - I was going through emails in bulk as I was out on site for a couple
of days and couldn't keep up on the emails. I did see that much later...

Hi Jaqueline,

this is exactly what I pointed out below, she could join any time an 
european ALS and this is what she did (see my mail late April 30, 2007: 
"...But we do not have to talk about this anymore concerning the current 
procedure, because the respective candidate already became a member of 
an european ALS.")
;-)
best
Annette
