[cma-l] FW: Call for entries for Pick and Mix

[Bill Best]

Hi Nick

The CMA is not previously aware of this project.  We have written to
them to ask them for more information.

The details of their proposal in their email that you have forwarded
are rather vague.

We will let you know if we find out anything useful.

Best regards for now

Bill
