Last time I booked the downstairs room (for the EGM) - we arrived and the weekend staff didn't know about it. Suggest we pay in advance.

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] qrpedia.org and qrwp.org
That's an unfair, and unduly combative way to put it! The negotiation over these domains has taken an undue amount of time, and it is still unclear exactly why that is so. Criticism (positive) of that seems fair. But the list you suggest is hugely unfair on a number of levels. :) Tom On 2 November 2012 20:22, geni geni...@gmail.com wrote: On 2 November 2012 16:28, rexx r...@blueyonder.co.uk wrote: The plans have not been scrapped. -- Doug However given the time so far taken there are only 3 three options: WMUK doesn't have the ability to handle domain and software back-end WMUK is incompetent The current owner doesn't actually want to transfer it.

In fact, sorry to be snippy! What I should have said is: the QRpedia code is available on Google Code ( http://code.google.com/p/qrwp/source/browse) and a quick browse should let you see it is written in PHP, the same language as Media Wiki etc. Tom On 2 November 2012 20:29, Thomas Morton morton.tho...@googlemail.comwrote: That's an unfair, and unduly combative way to put it!

I can provide examples of unfair, and unduly combative way to put it if you would like The negotiation over these domains has taken an undue amount of time, and it is still unclear exactly why that is so. Criticism (positive) of that seems fair. Yeah you realise that's actually worse than my list right? Given the value of the property involved and the time taken if the issue is negotiations overunning then incompetence is less of viable option.
