Is that okay? 02:25 Rory: Yes, Monday 12 October is agreed for the revised figures. 03:40 Rory: Do we need a second analysis? Leave it open until we see the figures. 04:20 Lee: We could try a pilot if the figures support it. I am suggesting it, not volunteering to run it. 05:15 Rory: Defer redesign until the next planning meeting. Its date is not set. M2 — meeting 7 October, 08:30 UTC 00:20 Rory: Before this morning's updates, our agreed date for Alex's revised figures is still 12 October. 00:40 Alex: That is the last date we agreed. I need to check a new delay and will raise it in the review thread. T1–T5 — full fictional review thread, 7 October UTC T1 09:00 Alex: The figures need one extra day.
