Leonardo,

Are you referring to the two-week notice when announcing meetings?

Thank you, Ken.

I agree that it would be best for the AHG if the preliminary work is done by the original proposers, and the results are presented to AHG for review. Thank you for your offer to host this meeting, and, once you have more information on the suggested date for this discussion, please announce it on this list, incase if any AHG member wants to join you.

Thank you and regards,
Vlad
