Thanks Birkir and Todd.

Unfortunately we can't bring the date forward because it takes a certain
amount of time to put #ID24 together. With W3C TPAC the week before and
US Thanksgiving the week after, there is precious little wriggle room
anywhere.

TPG is proud to support AHG, with David Sloan and Sarah Horton both
presenting talks during the week. We understand that the timing isn't
perfect, but hope that other organisations wil feel able to support both
events as well.

Léonie.
