Everyone's time is limited (including > that of the bid teams). I was trying to not diverge too much away from the process. But if there's no strong objection to skipping directly to the Bid Decision Meeting, that works for me too! Let's use the poll to find out a possible meeting date. As long as a good part of the Committee as well as representatives from the two bid teams can be present, we can certainly get to agree to make it the Decision Meeting. Let's just take this decision way before the actual meeting, for clarity, eh… -- OdyX
