IUCr Teaching topics and plenary speaker for IUCr XXI?


Hi All,

For IUCr XXI in Japan, following is the list of tentative teaching topics we
discussed in September 2006. 
 http://www.iucr.org/iucr-top/lists/teaching-commission/index.html

Any changes/additions/modifications to this?  Suggested session chairs?

I guess we now have to suggest a plenary speaker on the topic of
teaching?

My recommendation (if he has not retired by then), would be David Watkin
 to present on crystallography teaching to chemists.
