The rest of the workshop was divided into four topical sessions, each opened by short presentations by invited speakers on aspects of the session's focus, followed by reactions and discussion by a resource panel and audience members, including inputs from an online board for posting questions. Session 1: Technical Aspects, and Session 2: Legal Aspects, were held on Friday.
