[asac] Dates for next face to face meeting

[Richard Hills]

Dear all,

The dates for this are now hardening up on 2nd/3rd Nov, with the meeting 
itself taking place in Santiago on those two days and a visit to the 
site immediately before that (presumably 31st/1st).

This seems to be compatible with all the returns to the wiki page so far
https://safe.nrao.edu/wiki/bin/view/ALMA/FtfdatesFall

but there are quite a few people who have not put anything in there. 
Could you please either fill in the wiki page, or if it more convenient 
just send e-mail confirming that the above dates are OK or not?

Thanks Richard
