Thanks for the update, Joachim
| ## Waiting for Shepherd action
Arnaud, Cale, Iavor, Eric, we promise proposal authors a recommendation within a month [1] and hence a recommendation within a week or so.
I think that our Chief Nudger (Tom) will have been sending you weekly reminders about this. Tom have you been doing this?
Could you possibly get on this? We are all busy, I know.
Thanks
Simon
