Dear Q14/16 Colleagues,

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I'm sorry for the short and late notice, but,
in preparation for the Q14 meeting according to SG16 official procesdures, please could you let me know:

a) if you intend to come to the meeting, and
b) whether you intend to submit any contributions (how many contributions and
provisional titles please)

It is essential that we know your intentions so that we can make a decision on whether to
go ahead with the meeting or adjust the meeting duration. If there is insufficient interest
and/or insufficient contributions then the meeting will not be authorised.

As always, all we need to know are your intentions at this stage - if you could let me have
provisional titles for any contributions then this would also help.
