As Tim and Juergen aren't available to discuss the new draft of the 
Availability vocabulary, and I do not believe there is anything else to 
discuss, I will cancel this meeting.

Please consider using the time to look at the vocabulary upload linked to 
from Tim's email, so we can discuss it next week.

If any feedback on the existing specs come in, we will also discuss that 
next week (26th June).

Thanks,
