email discussion on postponing AHG Font Format to 2005-06-07

[mikeksar]

Below are the email discussion that proposes changing the date of 
the Font Format AHG from 2005-05-25 to 2005-06-07.

Dave Singer of Apple is now reconsidering if Apple can send someone 
to the meeting on 2005-06-07.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Mike Ksar


Here is a copy of the email discussion:

Fernando,

The address of the AHG reflector is: mpeg-OTspec at yahoogroups.com.  
Not everyone on this distribution list is a member of the 
reflector.  But I will post this to the reflector and I kindly 
request that people use it.

 Thanks for your note ... Regarding changing the dates, I think it 
would 
be much better if this discussion could happen in the reflector of 
the 
AHG in order everybody knows what is going on ... What is the 
address of 
the reflector ?

 Regards
                                                    Fernando

Following up on my previous note, Mike did contact me about 
deferring the meeting, and I thought we discussed that Apple 
couldn't make that week on the call.  So he is at least half right, 
that we agreed to the postponement, and who knows, maybe I am 
mistaken when I recall that I indicated it was a bad week for us.

I am checking with my colleagues so I can give a more definitive 
answer as to when we could make it.
