Folks, So the number of emails on this list over the past couple of days indicates there is a lot of interest in coordinating UK PUGs. So we don't lose momentum, lets agree to do *something* about it.
I realise there is a doodle somewhere to organise an IRC meeting - like I think I mentioned, it's "private". Is there any way to make it public to allow others on this list to indicate availability? So far the most promising dates are 17th and 19th August since they're when everyone (so far) can make it. Perhaps we can agree to make the IRC meeting on one of those two dates? Also, I must've misunderstood Zeth (apologies) - I thought you *were* going to do a Pinax site, but if I understand John correctly work is already done. Any chance of getting it online as an "alpha"..? ;-) Comments, ideas, suggestions most welcome! Nicholas.
