Introduction
  Between January and  March of 2002 we expect to gather small groups
of researchers, to exchange results and engage in joint work in the main
and vast topic of classical and quantum chaos in few- and many-body systems .
There will be seminars and working rooms available, computer links to
the world, and plenty of time to discuss and collaborate.
