Only a couple, I'm afraid. Andrew Savory was present, and I recognised the names of a couple of the committee but haven't ever met them. I think the non-OSSG turnout was perhaps eight people; there were people on the list who couldn't attend (e.g., Ian Lynch put his name down, although he told me before the meeting he was unlikely to attend) but I didn't recognise other names there either. > Were statements from SPI, FSF, debian, or anyone else given? No. If I'd had my act together, I would have brought them to ensure they could have been put, but I think I was expecting others to be there too - however, 6pm on a working day in London is obviously inaccessible to many people. I think it was relatively well understood, though, that it was unlikely community organisations would be much in favour of a new license. > Do you think we should do anything about BCS before their next move? I don't think so - I think the first thing is to see if their impression of the meeting, and the actions to be taken, match up to what I thought was said. Although I get the impression that the license is still on the table, everyone non-OSSG pushed the point home that a. it wasn't clear what the problems were, and b. the case hadn't been made that those problems couldn't be solved in better ways.
