Nah, it just means a trouble-causer like me has joined the list :)

But to avoid terrifying others who'll get back from work to find several
thousand emails waiting, I'll reply to the others here:

Hrm, that is really weird. There shouldn't be any problem with the two Moz 
installations on separate machines -- all you're doing is sending the X 
graphics down the line so they shouldn't clash. Presumably you're doing 
"ssh -X" to forward it, yep? Other than that, can't help at all!

Yeah, good plan. How many people are on this list?

Also, now would probably be a good time to establish exactly where we all 
are. Anyone reading, please reply and let it be known!

LIST

Mike S: Ulverston (Furness)
Chris P: Barrow (Furness)

If we can make a list of people willing to go to LUGs, it'll help in 
organising stuff.
