RE: [cdt-core-dev] Refactoring

[Markus.Schorn@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi Doug, 
I have no real constraints on when I can travel to Ottawa. I just
have to know in advance to be able to book a reasonable-priced
flight. It'd be best for me to know 2 weeks ahead. So, somewhere
between 6th and 10th of December or a week later is reasonable 
for me.
Markus.
