How about:
Tinker's proposal looks good (as far as I can tell as a non-native-english-speaker
).
I agree that it should be sent latest, when we finish our turn.
This message just needs to say that we now have official ingame-contact and our mail-address.
Further we should add, that we'll send a longer (more telling) message later via mail...
We have to decide upon an "official" ambassador soon....
edit:
Maybe HUSch can send it ingame?

On a settlement plan, it's doubtful they know we are so close.
One thing to establish pretty quickly among ourselves is if we plan to try to be friendly, or if we view them as a likely enemy. I see there being at least two factors. One is how we view the players on this team especially in terms of whether they are trustworthy. The other is geographic.

I go away for one weekend and of course we meet a neighbor 
If nobody else wants to volunteer, I'll be the Official Scientific Emissary to the Court of the Cavalheiros.
One of the things that I've learned from these games is speak often, even if you don't have much to say

From my point of view, we should try to establish a good relation to them. We shouldnt see them as enemies right from the beginning of the diplomacy. Maybe we should just tell them that we are in the NE of them.
Article 1.2 of our Ruleset prohibits map trades and screenshot trading until one of the trading partners know paper. Other than that, we're free to discuss anything under the sun.
I agree with Erpel that a hostile stance is probably not going to go over very well with them... any threats we make can't be backed up with with force just now. Also, it's important to consider how we would respond if they sent us a hostile message.
I think an analysis of the threat they pose to us should proceed in parallel with initial correspondence:
1. What do we want from them?
2. What do we want to keep them from?
3. How can we best profit from them?
4. How can we minimize the extent they will profit from us?
etc.
One other important point: My own personal style of diplomacy finds Lies to be of little use. I'm not against withholding the entire truth, but I won't lie (unless it's the general consensus). For instance, if they ask where our cities are, I would not tell them 'To the North and East of you'. Rather, I would simply dodge the question, or answer the question I wished they had asked
Totally agree with you, peter.
Further I'd like to mention, that they are our best chance to multiply our research as long as we don't know any other team. (That's might also true for them, but we don't know about their other contacts yet...)
We should send them a friendly message soon.
We should tell them, that our warrior will continue exploring southwards (probably somewhere along their borders), but not with hostile intentions.
Further I would ask if they already met other teams.
Looking at the distances and the river in their territory, it might be possible to arrange a connection inbetween our nations. (There might be a crucial pass SE of CERN, that might enable an early road connection.)
