(Not "what do you think about...")The first question should be quite easy to answer for those who have read the whole paperThe last question may be a tricky oneSend me the questions two weeks before your presentationWe may discuss the paper and refine the questions
 +    One week before the presentationwrite the questions to a dedicated wiki page here. Send a reminder (questions and link to the pdf of the paper) to rg@ufal.mff.cuni.cz by Monday 15:45.
  
-=== Summer 2007 ===+  * active participation in the discussions, which is conditioned by reading the papers in advance and attending the meetings, 
 +  * sending your answers to me and the presenter by Saturday 23:59 (so the presenter can go through all answers before the presentation and focus more on problematic parts). 
 +  * In case of more than three missed meetings or deadlines, additional work (e.g. reports or answers to tricky questions) will be required.
  
-^ Feb 21 | | | +All questions, reports and presented papers must be in English. The presentations are in English by default, but if all present people agree it may be in Czech.
