The B'lore workshop had a specific focus - bringing together the large scientifically advanced developing countries and to develop a common strategy for those countries. Eve Gray of South Africa has captured the essence of the workshop in her excellent blog entry, available at: http://ncsi.iisc.ernet.in/pipermail/lis-forum/2006-November/004933.html ------
