Listowners - please change the setting for replies to go to the list. In
the meantime, just use Reply-to-all.

Since there isn't a proposal template in circulation yet (come on
Burnie!) please move on adapting last year's and yes, that means the
deadline's shifted. The template, Call and the whole process really must
be in place in the next day or two so announcements can go out ABSOLUTE
LATEST the end of this week.

A)
I have some edits to propose to the "proposal template" that was
used last year, but I assumed that the "committee" would want to
discuss any potential changes. There are certainly things that
could (and should) be done different than last year.

B)
You email arrived here on March 19th at 3:11PM. Your deadline was
March 20th at 3:00AM. That left basically one evening to have any
time before 'the deadline', and that's part of why you didn't see
any updates from me.
