Dialog at a project meeting:

Tim: Ok guys, so following on from last week's brainstorming sessions, I just wanted to say that management are seriously thinking about a lot of the ideas you mentioned.

Pete: Great. Now what about the timeframe? Have they agreed to extend it by the extra month?

Tim: Yes, so our new deadline is the end of January next year. This should give us plenty of time to do everything.
