On maidens I dimly recall that we will announce well in advance, I will certainly push for it, we have a lot to learn from the mistakes of maidens this year compared to my first year.
The advantage with maidens is that we can still announce well in advance without announcing now, if you get my meaning. It is not a debate where speakers have to be approached now and so gives the board a chance to await any further developments. For example my year was the clerics of hate debate, given recent events something similar could happen, or the Iranian nuclear question my change, or the Jewish academic boycott etc.
