Hi, Sandie:

Yes, yes, I remember my trips to Copenhagen very well. I was very happy
to share what I knew at the time, and Hans and all the folks at the
Institute were always so very gracious. It's a fond memory for me.

Speaking of music, I see there's a very interesting project with
MusicXML at the Danish Institute. It seems it's all for JAWS right now,
but I'm hoping they have bigger plans. I don't have all the details, but
I think they're on a very good path.

BTW: If you run into Hans and Mitsy, please say Hello from me. I've been
thinking of them recently and hope they're doing well.

Best,

Janina
