>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>> Status request:
>>>>>
>>>>> At this point, as I am traveling to Dubai for ITU WCIT, my  
>>>>> Friday is extremely limited in availability. I can only do a  
>>>>> call from 1-3 p.m  due to travel and previous commitments, but
>>>>>
>>>>> of more importance is that short notice prevents all of us to  
>>>>> plan. But that is only an illustration of how hard it is to  
>>>>> schedule on short notice. I suspect/expect others are more  
>>>>> limited than I am!
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>> A call next week will fall while I am in Dubai, and I see at  
>>>>> least one other person from this group also there.
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>>
>>>>> Can we have a few days notice, and some time slots, so that all  
>>>>> of us can plan accordingly to ensure that we can participate?
