  hi,
  good idea to do an irc meeting to revive global groups, specially the basic ones such as communication, proces, legal, finance and so on and see how we are, how we feel, what is needed, what not, new forms of comunication and all this...
  when? at what time? (say what time in some world times...)

    Hello all

    Could we have this first meeting on IRC as we all know how to use it 
    and if needed not go into too much detail - just see who is 
    interested and what the problems are - i have this feeling that by 
    the time we sort the new software out people would have drifted!

    I say this as i am not the fastest with new tech - and have missed 
    many a meeting with new gismos installed...!

    cheers tony
