RINGO refugees

My last post from Copenhagen. Restrictions on NGO access to conference center mean Oxford delegation has only a few passes, and even people with passes are lining up for hours to get in. So I am leaving to make space for others and will watch webcasts from my brother's flat in London. Several of us spent the last couple of days working with the University of Copenhagen to set up a hall at the Copenhagen Business School for RINGO delegates (Research NGOs), especially students, for people to come who cannot get into Bella Center. We now have a room with live web feed of press conferences and plenaries, wireless links, and a nice cafeteria nearby.

Conference seems back to work now and some people more optimistic. More later today.
