[J3] [SC22WG5.6389] WG5/J3 in Boulder is still on!

[John Reid]

Steve,

Is there a mistake in N2193? This says "Reservation Deadline: June 24, 
2022".

I am seriously thinking about coming but there is a certain "catch 22" 
about it. I don't want to come to find that few people are attending. 
Have you any idea about likely numbers?

One final question for you. The agenda says that the meeting will run 
all day on Friday. Do you think there is business to justify this? How 
upset would you be if I skipped Friday? Please understand that I know 
what it is like to be convenor and want to do all I can to support you.

It is bad news that Brian is stepping down.

Cheers,

John.
