Re: [council] JAS update and deadline

[Stéphane Van Gelder <stephane.vangelder@xxxxxxxxx>]

All,

FYI I have updated the draft agenda to show the Sept 22 as the date for our 
next meeting.

I have asked Glen to inform the wider community of this date change and update 
the deadline for submitting motions and documents accordingly.

Thanks,

Stéphane
