Hi,

I don't think anyone needs to have had advanced notification.  We all  
sort of knew that there would be consultations and that would be in  
the first quarter of this year.  We just did not know exactly when.   
So while there may be some difficulty in coming up with funding in  
time or in getting hotel rooms, we all knew that we would need to get  
contributions in some time around now.  We just did not do too much  
about it.

So yeah, it is now crunch time again.  However, by and large, we seem  
to mostly work when it is crunch time.
