This is (mostly) the draft Interaction programme timeline as of mid-January 2005.  I still need to:

•  add the pubs timeline information
• update the 1st mailing date which (I think) was a week later
• add the pre-con run-up timeline
  

The questionnaire details were different as we had a two-questionnaire model that didn't work out all that well on the day.  I'd argue for keeping December 2010 as the due date for the single questionnaire.
