[games_access] SIG Meetings RESCHEDULED for Friday (Sept 28)

[Eelke Folmer]

hi Michelle,

Could you send us an example proposal you put in last year for GDC so
we have an idea how such a proposal is written? e.g. does it need to
be very formal or is a "loose" style like we have on the wiki now
acceptable?

Cheers eelke
