While J3 can change its own general formula around all it likes, I don't think 
it is necessary, at least for the 2013 meeting.  For 2011 the formula is already 
wrong (but see below).

We've always done WG5 meetings on a case by case basis.  I see no reason to 
change that, and plenty of reasons not to.  Of course there is nothing 
particular magic about June.  In the past we've had the "summer" WG5 meeting in 
May, June, July and August.  Usually the host country has some limitations on 
when they can provide the meeting, and we just make our best attempt to pick a 
week that they can provide and which gets the best attendance.

Hmm, I notice the WG5 web site still only says "probably" for the 2011 meeting. 
I thought this was sorted out? - there is nothing about probability in 
resolution LV8.

There is "probably" more need to fix the date of the 2012 meeting than the 2013 
one!  I assume that we will do that next year too.

Cheers,
