date of what though?
The vote on the deal has always been pretty simple - accept it or not.
Last time, the EU published a load of extra docs on legal opinions, and joint statements and what not, so it was seen as different. The EU said, there will be no third try at amending the deal (which they hadnt done anyway) or publishing legal opinions.
I don't think just No10 publishing something would change it enough, according to what Bercow just said. Perhaps some legal mumbo jumbo about the Geneva Convention or somesuch, but I've heard less about over the weekend anyway, and according to Bercow, doesn't sound like it would be enough.

@abr
Is it the deal itself that has to change, or the motion on the deal that has to change? ie could the deal stay the same and the govt could add some extra bits and pieces (eg date) to change it enough to go up for a vote?
Every piece of news like this feels like an equal win for no Brexit and default no deal... so hard to know whether to be happy about it or not
