I think a proper demonstration of geeklog is vital.  Is there any chance
of getting a machine to the next meet with a copy of Geeklog on it so
Ian can show us it's true potential and we can say what we do/don't want?

Apart from the question of whether a CMS is really needed for such small
site.  One of the biggest problems I have with it is that since it first 
appeared in April/May, despite various suggestions, comments, criticisms 
and lists of what people want from the site.  The only changes have been 
the addition of the header and footer from the main site and the rather 
dodgy menu bar. Ian has repeatedly told us how easy to customise Geeklog is, 
yet there's been no evidence of this so far!

I'd also like to see the main site kept up to date.  Perhaps one of the
others who volunteered to help with the site would be prepared to do
this.  If not, then I'll have a stab at it if your willing to let me. Then 
Ian could do something with Geeklog to show it's as yet untapped potential 
and if we decide to use it, it can take over.  Until then we'll still have 
an up to date site to use.

Is there any date in mind for the next meeting yet?
