I dispute that. :) I've heard from different people on different occasions that they would have been able to make such-and-such a meeting if they had had more advanced notice. Some people really do plan ahead. The concept is foreign to me, but I know well that "me != everybody". As an example, look at someone who travels a lot, like maddog. Anyone like that is going to need several weeks advance notice to plan their schedule.
After that [1 week], people can't change them.
Tell that to my boss! ;-)
But some people rush off to Starbucks and then to work without reading their email!
Others don't read their email until they get to work.
Having the announcement always arrive on the same day relative to the event is also very helpful in establishing expectations.
This I agree with. Even if people don't consciously realize it, they will start to associate the time periods. -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-org mailing list gnhlug-org@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-org/
