We will describe an approach to the h-principle tailored to categorically minded topologists. This will
form the basis for proving that Igusa's space of framed generalized Morse functions is contractible,
the key geometric step in the proof of the cobordism hypothesis.
Note that this will be an extended talk starting at the earlier time of 14:00.
