Re: [AGA-sc] [Fwd: PRESS RELEASE International Aquatic Plants Layout Contest 2009 & IAPLC 2010 announcement]



Maybe it is April... I couldn't remember.  But you're right, I don't think
it has changed.

I am sure their results are coming out later and later because they suffer 
from the same problems we do -- overwork, procrastination, etc.  I don't 
think they've ever moved the entrance deadline back from April, right? 
You can see what happens when one doesn't have a hard deadline of a 
convention in which to release the results.

Nonetheless, thank you for holding their feet to the fire on the results. 
I would absolutely not publish them if they waited so long that they were 
at the same time as our own.  It's bad enough that we devote so many pages 
to begin with.
