BEFORE THE APPROVED CHANGE ========================== Reply to Dana ============= Subject: Re: Workshop date and numbers Hi Dana, The current approved plan is 12 November for 12 people. The 10 November date is from the earlier brief. An increase to 20 has been proposed, but it hasn't been approved. The start time is still to be confirmed. Please use 12 November and 12 people for planning, and leave the time unconfirmed with the venue for now. Best, Alex WHY THIS WORKS The reply gives Dana usable planning details without agreeing to the old date or the proposed headcount. --- Reply to Theo ============= Subject: Re: Latest workshop deck Hi Theo, The latest version listed is workshop-deck-v3.pptx, which is still a draft. The current approved plan is 12 November for 12 people. The start time and the proposed increase to 20 people are still open. The deck also needs final approval, so please treat it as a draft when preparing the briefing. Best, Alex BEFORE SENDING add a permitted link to the actual deck or attach the file. This example provides only its status note; no deck is attached or sent. SEPARATE ANSWER NOTES — NOT EMAIL TEXT ====================================== SOURCE NOTE The current brief, approved by Priya on 2 November, sets 12 November and 12 people; the time is unconfirmed. The 4 November note proposes 20 but does not approve it. The 5 November deck-status note lists v3 as a draft; the packet contains no deck. BEFORE SENDING - Confirm the start time and the headcount decision before treating either as settled. - For Theo, add a permitted link or attachment to the actual draft deck and verify its current status. AFTER THE APPROVED CHANGE ========================= Updated reply to Dana ===================== Subject: Re: Workshop date and numbers Hi Dana, The approved workshop plan is now 12 November at 14:00 for 20 people. Please use those details for the venue booking. The 10 November date is from the earlier brief; 12 November remains the confirmed date. Best, Alex WHY THIS WORKS The proposed headcount is now approved, and the missing time has an answer. The date stays 12 November. --- Updated reply to Theo ===================== Subject: Re: Latest workshop deck Hi Theo, The workshop details are now confirmed: 12 November at 14:00 for 20 people. The latest deck listed is still workshop-deck-v3.pptx, and it remains a draft. Its logistics slide needs the confirmed time and the change from 12 to 20 people. Final approval is also still pending. Those deck edits and approval are the remaining items before it can be treated as final. Best, Alex BEFORE SENDING add a permitted link to the actual draft or attach it. If the deck has since been revised, check its new version and status first. SEPARATE ANSWER NOTES — NOT EMAIL TEXT ====================================== WHAT CHANGED Priya’s 7 November approval sets 14:00 and 20 people; the date stays 12 November. Both replies use the new logistics. Theo’s open points are now the deck edits and final approval, not the time and headcount. BEFORE SENDING - Check the actual deck version, update its logistics slide and obtain approval before calling it final. The change note does not do those jobs. - For Theo, add the permitted link or attachment. If sharing a draft, keep that status clear.
