In would love to be a part of the meeting as a user just to be a fly on the wall. My datacenter that I am contracted to build a public cloud is relying on me to keep up to date with the project but tomorrow I am scheduled to do a wireless relay shot of 18miles and will miss the meeting. Not a big deal if the notes are taken or recorded and I will be able to review them.

Maybe we can post it so others can view it if they are not able to attend (or only become interested after the first couple meetings and wants to catch up)?
