It is an initial reminder to give you plenty of time to > prepare your quarterly board report. I'm slightly confused by this. Was the annotator report in September2018 (which I recollect, and can see there now) an illusion? OK, looking back over the archives, the last report before that was April, so I guess it's on a reporting schedule of Apr/Jul/Oct/Jan and the September report was out-of-sequence. I guess that means in principle the options are to report a second time in quick succession or to adjust the reporting schedule, and we're probably a bit late for the latter. Perhaps it would make sense for the automated emails to mention a podling's reporting schedule, so as to save potential confusion. Not least from the person(s) who put the effort into writing the September report and might wonder why it's expected again in October. Presumably this kind of thing may affect other podlings from time to time too? -- Nick Kew
