This is an announcement for the paper "A Valdivia compact space with no $G_\delta$ points and few nontrivial convergent sequences" by Claudia Correa and Daniel V. Tausk. Abstract: We give an example of a Valdivia compact space with no $G_\delta$ points and no nontrivial convergent sequences in the complement of a dense $\Sigma$-subset. The example is related to a problem concerning twisted sums of Banach spaces.
