Dear Eystein,

Many thanks for the clarification. Having myself been coordinator of EU
proposals, I know how difficult the last moments are when many texts and
budget tables have to be merged into something coherent for the evaluation.
The new EU framework makes this problem even more accute with these
gigantic proposals gathering a significant part of the european scientists
working in our field. Anyway, it was logical from our perspective to
mention this minor overlook that can be fixed at a later stage. We all hope
that IMPRINT will be accepted and will benefit to all our teams.

Cheers, Edouard
