pterosaur workshop program



Sorry for eventual cross-posting.
Usually I send my message about programs and events on both(vertpaleo and dino) lists, this time however I forgot to add one address to the "CC" line.
Anyway, dear dinolisters, here is the program of the pterosaur workshop.
I want also to thank the people of dino news for putting the preliminary program on their e-zine.
