individual signatories:

This banner (designed by Les Carr and Chris Gutteridge of University
of Southampton's EPrints team) will scroll to show the highlights of the
institutional signatories, a remarkable list. (Thanks to John Lamp for

sign in time to help the Brussels EU conference to display the will of the
European and Worldwide Research community to the EC Science Commissioner

and arts, learned societies, research funding agencies -- are encouraged
to make a show of strength.
