Hi Franz and Henry

1) I suggest to extend the paragraph

"Recent progress towards large-scale nonlinear programming
is mostly based on algorithmic ideas which avoid using
standard interior-point technology. These include first order
methods, algorithms which focus on the sparsity structure as well
as nonsmooth methods applied to some Lagrangian dual,"

to reflect that parallel implementations of IPM's as well as column 
generation-type techniques (a la the new Sedumi)
are also promising. (Especially since parallel implementation is mentioned 
later.)

2) In the list of workshops we could add

7th International Workshop on High Performance optimization. June 27 & 28, 
2002, Tilburg University, The Netherlands
http://ssor.twi.tudelft.nl/%7Ehpopt/hpopt2002/

Best wishes
Etienne
