[Rivet] Rivet dev/BSM workshop registration

[Andy Buckley]

Dear all,

I have set up a workshop page for this meeting:

https://indico.cern.ch/event/549001/

Please register asap so I know how many rooms to book in Lunga House, 
and so we can do the budgeting and work out the extent to which we can 
fund accommodation etc. To encourage rapid sign-up, 
first-come-first-served will be the decision criterion after need ;-)

Have a good weekend!
Andy
