About the programs with the countries: I think that would be too cluttery. Besides, next year, the rumor is that they are cutting down the number of departures, meaning that the programs each country has will usually ALL leave in the same departure. Either way, we just want this page up to see upcoming departures. This way, we can keep the page simple, but still let people see the countries departing for their nominated month and region.<br />
<br />
About the past dates in the "By Country" listing; this particular page "Timeline" is for invites of only the current month and the future months. Past dates should be placed in the [[Timeline Archive]]. Each time a month ends, we will move the list of invites for that month from the Timeline page to the Timeline Archive page. However, the Timeline Page would also be where you put relatively recent (meaning probably since '05) past invitation/departures, but only if you specifically know them and are not just guessing. But for now, we'll probably leave the "By Country" listings as they are with both the recent past and present invites.<br />
<br />
Hope that helps! --[[User:Jenna|jenewalk]] 8 July 2008<br />

Would it be too clutter-y to add programs with the countries and dates? Some countries send programs at different times, and it would help people trying to find their possible assignments. --[[User:A.Eriksen|A.Eriksen]] 20:19, 6 July 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
How should we show past dates in the "By Country" listing? The way I see it, we can show them as in the past (as it is now with the year indicated) or just remove them entirely and let people know that past invite dates are in the archive. Any thoughts? --[[User:A.Eriksen|A.Eriksen]] 20:19, 6 July 2008 (UTC)<br />

== 6-Week Deadline Rule? ==<br />
<br />
Hello,<br />
<br />
What is meant by the "6-week deadline rule" in the following sentence?<br />
<br />
"Use the staging date, because that is what they use as the '6-wk deadline' rule."<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
<br />
