I would like to make a small correction to the title.
"Gouffre Berger and Gouffre de la Fromagère caves are officially connected! Without Diving"
The 1st connection was made in 1990 by Fredo Poggia by diving a siphon between the two caves. This was not the same siphon they pumped dry now.

Do you know where the connection was made on the Berger side?
On the recommendation of Wardy, Badlad, Steve Thomas, Alan Box and I looked at the top of the DED Gallery for a possible connection back in 1992 but didn't find anything.

Apologies, I would change the title but a) I don't know how, and b) it would then make your post look a bit odd.
When I first saw the news, for a split second I thought that somehow, with some bizarre dye tracing experiment French cavers had linked Goufrre Berger with the cheese maker's caves of Cheddar!!

No problem, when you see the clip by petzl the dive of Fredo is mentioned.
