<div dir="ltr">
<div>Greetings to all collaborators,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Robert Smith? in a great demonstration of&nbsp;editing capability was able to assemble the collaborative paper within one night, Believe me this is not easy for considering there&nbsp;are 18&nbsp;authors.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>First, I suggest all collaborators&nbsp;thank him personally for his effort here. There are&nbsp;18 people in the paper and he knows much about what you do - he visited your web pages for the paper so I suggest you repay him the same gesture and learn what he does
 better so you can retell it to others - just like he can tell about your work now.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Anyway, the paper was posted for SummerSim and I will handle its review - if you have suggestions for reviewers, please send them via personal email my way.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Meanwhile, before external reviewers, I suggest each one of the authors listed below looks at the paper draft and checks his section for accuracy including name spelling and affiliation - much text was changed to fit it into one paper - so expect changes.
 Unless there is an error, I suggest you request no changes until we get the reviews - unless it is extremely important in which case be mindful of Robert's time. If there are errors - please report those and they&nbsp;will be taken care of in the next revision
 after external reviewers file their review. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Here is a link to the draft paper submitted: </div>
