It seems the IWF are getting so much flak they've put a front page
statement on their website:

 Hmm, that depends when you expect the AGM to be. We cant hold the AGM
 until at least 21 days after the bank account is opened and they
 haven't even asked us for proof of ID yet. With holidays, that could
 easily drag on into the new year. We'll do it as quickly as possible
 of course, but I personally wouldn't be surprised if the AGM was
 around mid February.

I was hoping late January. If nothing goes wrong with the bank
account, it's perfectly believable that it could be open by the end of
the year, making late January an option for the AGM.

As I said when this issue came up in one of the board meeting, we can't 
just call the AGM the day after we get a bank account. There need to be 
time for people to join after the bank account, and before the notice, 
so that they can be a member and decide/time to run for the board, which 
need members to be nominated in writing.
