Hi Everyone,

You will be receiving several emails from me over the next few minutes
because I am taking a page from the book of "Julie Rawe's Effective Project
Management Skills" and will be sending out calendar invites for all
Internationalization Subgroup Meetings for the summer.

With that said, the purpose of this email is to remind you about this

following time:
