Hi all,

Just my thoughts on this: I personally don't feel left out despite never
getting around to going on IRC.  But I do feel that the mailing list is
lacking in traffic.  I think the problem is that we tend to use it for
questions & answers and not so much for general discussion.

Personally I wouldn't want to have to travel out of town for a meeting, so
the HoS is perfect geographically speaking.  Unfortunately I've missed the
last couple of meetings.  This month I made a mistake with the dates -
thought it was next week, duh!  Since meetings are so far apart if I happen
to miss one or two then it's a couple of months before I see you all again. 
Maybe more frequent meetings would help...

And I've pointed this out before ^^^^^^^^
Maybe ppl are busy building time machines so they can travel back to attend
the meeting ;-)

Bye for now,
Sarah.
