Africa in the 7th framework

This is a very important news! The Organizer of the Europe Africa Concertation Meeting told me today, that all African Research Institutions are eligible for funding in projects of the 7th framewwork. My information up to now was, that only SouthAfrican Institutions would be eligible. This should be wrong. South African Institutions have another advantage. They will get specific funding also from their government if they participate in 7th framework projects.
If this verifies it is revolutionary and will change our approach to the 7th framework program.

Turkey into the EU? Ratzinger got it right now.....

I disagree mostly with Benedetto XVI.  But I agree with his position regarding Turkey and the EU. Turkey must become a member. I appreciate his position particularly looking back to the speech he gave some tome ago in Regensburg regarding Islam. It was most inappropriate for the pope of the catholic church to say these harsh words about another religion, but nevertheless they were not wrong, and nevertheless Turkey must join the EU!
