Hi there
Will try to pitch in with irc chat on Tuesday, but having
trouble with sustained net access in the evenings so if not,
will catch up with the minutes

Wanting to flag for discussion - contributions to engage
media; networking with other video groups; travelling 'Eye
of the Storm'.  Am not in a position to do much organising
for the convergence, but will aim to contribute in these
areas

Also, Andre Spicer is visiting from the UK and would be
interested to meet up with people working in the area of
web-based alt-media (see below).  It sounds an interesting
project - let me know if you'd like me to pass on contact
details.
