.....your email is coming a bit late, because yesterday WG4 already
immediately contacted additional persons to fill the "empty" spaces:
some posters were promoted to talks, and some new posters were invited.
So, at the moment there is no empty space neither for talks nor for
posters. It might well be that some poster is cancelled because
people can not or do not want to come. In that case it is possible to
invite some new posters. It is less probable than some talk get
cancelled, but, who knows ? In any case it is early to say, it will be
clearer at a later stage. In case cancellations in the talks occur,
it will be possible to take into account your suggestions. In that case,
you will be promptly informed.
In any case, a convener can not speak (otherwise all people whose
abstracts will be rejected because there is still not enough space for
everybody will become quite angry.....).
