Great update, thanks Benni!

Just in case it's interesting for all of you, the MSF Scientific Days is
actually live stream for free. The new MapSwipe prototype will be presented
in a one minute speed session at 12:40 on the 10th May (UK time) and then
at 13:00 on the same day with a longer video interview with the team. All
welcome!

Agenda is here:
