We received IDRC's agreement to publish that invitation only on May 31, and
unfortunately were unable to publish it the same day. We are trying to
publish invitations as soon as we get them.

It would be very helpful to get some earlier notice regarding such
meetings.
Another recent meeting, regarding a Bhutan/Canada bilateral meeting in
Ottawa,
was announced on CANCHID about 3 days before it happened.  I would
seriously
consider some of these meetings but need more lead time.  Could people
advertise their meetings a little sooner please!?
