Title: New developments in birational anabelian geometry

Abstract: It is one of the features of all the (birational) anabelian results that, given Galois theoretical information, one eventually recovers the prime divisors / points, etc., of geometrical objects under discussion. I plan to discuss the situation when much less Galois information is available, precisely one has either

a) the Z/l abelian-by-central Galois group (in the usual geometrical setting), or

b) the Z_l abelian-by-central Galois group (in an arithmetical situation). I will end up by discussing some new results, and give hints about the proofs and hopes.
