[UA-discuss] UA Day

[Mutegeki Cliff]

I do agree with steve.  Furthermore, it would not be the best time to
change the system if we have not given the current one ample time to assess
whether we should celebrate for 2 months or not. Now, i understand the
objective is to raise awareness, but what is the justification for that ?
