Jason or Sam's solution seems good to me.
Speaking as a former member of the committee who resigned
due to too many commitments, I agree with Ian that raking
over past problems is not the most productive way to
get re-booted. Very busy people worked very hard on
AFFS, and final problems were probably a combination
of lack of time to meet, and bureaucratic overhead of
the constitution.
Any resurrection of AFFS will depend on member interest
and direction from said members [1] - what sort of
interest have you had in these off-list e-mails, John?
If there's enough interest in a meeting and a re-boot,
call one and see who comes. Somewhere central, obviously
- previous successful meetings have been in London
and Birmingham, but if you want Manchester I'm happy to
try and arrange a venue :)

[1] Declaration of interest: I'm looking at applying for an AFFS
grant to pay towards some Free Software I'm commissioning for
the voluntary sector, so things would be a lot easier with
a functioning AFFS, and its grant scheme.
