Hi!

Thank you so much for adding meeting support for IAB Programs to the Datatracker. Having those show up on the calendar will make a lot of people happy.

There are a couple of (hopefully small?) tweaks that we'd like to make to the announcements for IAB Program Meetings to avoid confusion later down the line.

1. Is it possible to change the "From" address from "IESG Secretary iesg-secretary@ietf.org" to "IAB Executive Administrative Manager execd@iab.org" for IAB Program meetings?

2. In the message subject line, would it be possible to remove "WG" for IAB Program meetings? E.g.,

Currently: "RFC Editor Future Development Program (rfcefdp) WG Virtual
Meeting: 2020-05-27"

Requested: "RFC Editor Future Development Program (rfcefdp) Virtual
Meeting: 2020-05-27"

3. Similarly, in the body of the message, would it be possible to remove "Working Group" for IAB Program meetings? E.g.,

Currently: "The RFC Editor Future Development Program (rfcefdp)
Working Group will hold..."

Requested: "The RFC Editor Future Development Program (rfcefdp) will
hold..."

(In the meantime, we can edit the body of the message manually if
needed for request 3.)

Thank you again!
Cindy

This is made a bit nasty by having a program that has the word program in its name. We shouldn't do that.

Also, I'm making the template that generates the default text actually use the group type names, so "Working Group" will become "WG". If that's not ok, I think we should change the name in the GroupTypeName table to be the longer form (for several group types). That said, there are other places where these are used, and WG is likely expected, so that change will have to go come with a lot of review.
