It was a question after reviewing many possibility.

BTW, if people could be there today, I'll be there.

If not, I'll add in my agenda next Wednesday as meeting time and I'll
send all the reminders. (see below, at the end of the email)

I'm sorry but the discussion we had in this list took most of my time
and I didn't notice we were near to this deadline (wed 25th).

Don't worry, if it couldn't be today, it would be the next week :)

I agree completely with you.

I think it should be a good start to have this question answered by people.

So, if you agree with me, we should postpone the meeting next week
after all of those questions will be reviewed/thought.

Is this ok?

Thank you Max for these good points.
