Place where London.pm meets to discuss technical matters not a meeting place.

Don't get me wrong, I think Yahoo! are entitled to put in place whatever policies they want. However, I don't think it's in anyone's interest to be wholly positive about a policy that may at some stage prohibit someone from going to a meeting that they might like to or everyone else might like them to. Someone fretting on a mailing list is hardly going to push the Yahoo! office manager over the edge in a mad rampage and ban London.pm, is it? Perhaps you think I shouldn't mention it just because I'm not in a position to offer anything better? Jasper
