Est-ce qu'est dans le site officiel de l'Internet la liste des athlètes? (Je ne sais pas si mon français est assez bien, mais avec deux personnes francophones, j'ai eu envie de l'essayer! 
)
Is the list on the official website? (I don't know if my French is all that great, but with two French-speaking people, I had to test it out! )

Très bien ! wow
"Est-ce que la liste des athlètes est sur le site officiel ?" is better but the rest is impressive !
No, the list is not available on the official site..

I wanted to go and actually made some plans but then I realized it was just too close the US Nats.
Mehdi - I hope you give us good unbiased reports on the competitions.

Mehdi - If I knew the present situation with Kwan, I would have skipped US Nats and gone to Euros. Much rather watch Joubert, Lambiel, Klimkin and Plushenko. The Mens division at Euros will be a hoot.

Joe,
I just made plans to go and cheap airline tix to Lyon can still be had - fly through Paris or fly to Orly/Paris and just hop the train directly from the airport to Lyon.
If you need a room, they have them for as little as $70 Euros a night and still openings. C'mon.....go to Euros!! Like you mentioned as the big draw, I'm going to see Plushenko versus Joubert live - their last two Euro matches have been fantastic and am very pleased to finally get to see one live.
Bon soir,

It's so tempting Zanzibar, but it's a matter of time more than money.

I clicked on Sebie's link and notice that there are so many entries from one country. I presume there is no criteria for qualifying for euros?
Also there is no Lambiel in the Men's division - not under Sui or Swi.

The ones with numbers next to them are the actual representatives for that country in the competition. The others with an "S" next to their name in the right-hand column are alternates for those skaters ("S" for "substitute"). IIRC, a country is allowed as many alternates as they are actual competitors in the competition (hence why Russia has 6 skaters entered--3 skaters, 3 alternates)
And Lambiel is there, under SUI. There are just so many mens skaters, he's on the second page
. Scroll all the way down to the bottom and click "Next"; he's at the top of the pageKathleen,Zanzibar said:
I am persuaded that these European championships are going to be exciting! The "fight" between Stéphane Lambiel, Evnegui Plushenko and Brian Joubert is going to be intense for our nerves in Lyon
! Lol!! I look forward to being there! Welcome in Lyon .

Thanks Matt. I didn't notice the 'next' at the bottom of the page.Matt said:The ones with numbers next to them are the actual representatives for that country in the competition.

How did Russia get 3 entries? Based on last year's Euros and not Worlds. Correct?

Yes. Qualification for Euros is based on last year's Euro results.Joesitz said:
Hi all
Well, after a first day with very few skaters on the ice we had a much better second day of training sessions. Most pairs, ladies and dancers were there.
It was a pleasure to see Drobiazko/Vanagas back. They have a nice free program. I'm very impressed by the German pair of Aliona Savchenko/Robin Szolkowy. They really have great moves with difficult transitions and I love their style. The 3 russian teams didn't show up unfortunately.
In the ladies field we saw Volchkova and Sokolova. They were not at their best. Sokolova looks overweighted and Volchkova, just back from injury, said that she was there just for fun. Anyway nice to see her back.
