I attended this biennial meeting for the fourth consecutive time. Attendance in Toulouse was substantially larger than previously. Organization was excellently led by Umberto Grandi.

Toulouse was busy with tourists augmented by fans of Euro 2016 football teams and evenings were very noisy downtown. The city seems like a pleasant, slightly provincial place.

There were many interesting talks but I find it hard to maintain concentration. The poster sessions were surprisingly interesting and perhaps in future there should be much more time spent on these, and shorter talks given.
