I encountered a useful new word when talking to one of the Indian trainers - in the context that she was trying to prevent her trainees from using it because it doesn't actually exist in British English. But it should, by all logical rules, be a word, and I think it could be quite useful.
If you delay something, or change the date to a later date, you postpone it.
So why, if you bring something forward from the original planned date, can't you prepone it?

It looks like something you put on pizza!
Going by various sites it seems to be a perfectly valid Anglo- Indian term and one I think we should embrace whole-heartedly , not that I forsee much use for it here in local government ( what are the chances of actually ever bringing something forward ahead of schedule?)
Heh I thought prepone was a valid word, darn it!
