Sorry for the late response - I won't be at the meeting today as my wife
is traveling and I have the kids.

Phil and Milo - if you want to propose a time or times for the planning
meeting, hopefully evening time in Europe, I can probably make an hour
or so one afternoon during work.  Shaun is in the process of moving so
he may be iffy.  Just let me know what works.

Thanks.
