An important part of MuPad Combinat is already "in design". I.e., we have
various very promising approaches to the theory of species - or, in MuPad
Combinat - Flajolet speech: "Combinatorial Classes".

DEFINITELY. In fact, I'm just working my way through Lascoux CBMS book - so
far, I have done the first two exercises :-)

Thinking about it, maybe the next workshop could be on symmetric functions. I
guess, we could attract quite a few interesting researchers that way. If we
want to go fast, maybe even February would be possible.
