During early DC15 discussions, you didn't want to set aside even as

Hey everyone,
Thanks a lot for the interest and the support shown in this thread.
It does seem that we are mostly in agreement regarding the timeline.
It seems that we mostly need a better name for pre-registration, and
there are some doubts about the month for bursaries being or not
