For me that's ok. But here are my restrictions:

I'm going to England in April, thus, I'm not able to answer until April 30th.
(This is my first holiday since several years, so I will go, whether you like
it or not :-)

Next: There should be first a group which thinks about IPC mechanisms. If noone
is interested I will do it, though my time constraints are very restrictive. If
there's someone else ... I'm the first one who supports him!

Besides the time constraints another important restriction arise: I'm only able
to work here at this organisation until Sep. 30th, because I will finish my
diploma thesis this July. The contract is restricted until I'm ready. So, that's
the very bad news (not for me! I'm happy to start working on my PhD :-)

Therefore: I'm currently running around, searching for a place where I can
make the PhD in the next years. I hope to find an engagement before I'm leaving
and to let you know, where I'm reachable then.
