[Retros] Messigny 2006 : quick composing retro tourney - announcement

[CAILLAUDM at aol.com]

Hello,
 
Prelimary announcement.
This year, organizers of PCCC meeting in Wageningen wish that tourneys held  
there are opened only to meeting participants and I will follow their wish. So 
 Messigny will be the only composing tourney I organize this year with 
Internet  entries allowed. Champagne 2006 will not be opened to Internet entries (so 

:  weep or come to Wageningen!).

I also take notice of some people claims (among them Andrei Frolkin :  see 
his articles in feenschach for example) that a lot is done for promoting  SPGs 
and almost nothing for other forms of retro problems. 
 
Below the Messigny 2006 announcement.
 
Best wishes,
 Michel
