Hi Simon, I will ask some one to prepare the meeting room for us at I-Network, a small challenge though is that I am attending a training at Mosa Courts sponsored by Inwent something about FOSS Business Models for Africa. It will run till the next Friday this means I may not attend the meeting.
I will however continue to discuss what we can do and where I can give more input online.
