Did the AGM notice get sent out to the membership email list?

I don't think it did as I didn't receive it.

We announced the meeting in an e-mail to everyone on the list on Oct 25th. The main subject of that e-mail was the progress we're making with the Aviva contest, and the AGM was the second point.

We're working on a few final details for another newsletter e-mail that will get sent out and shared on Monday or Tuesday, which will include the tentative agenda for the meeting and a reminder.
