As far as I know so far, nope. But I'm sure once I read through the
thousands of emails I've avoided due to being on holiday we might have a
different story.

Do you have more details on this XSL user group? the http://www.xslug.orgsite

We are still working on the website, around work commitments - apologies for
the delay.

More information are available on the upcoming site below

http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/190628/

The idea is simple, if you have ever written an XSLT stylesheet or wondered
what all the hullabaloo (do people still use this word?) is all about, then
come join us for our first London user group meeting. Of course if you just
happen to be in the vicinity and want to meet some pretty cool people, then
come along too.

It's less of a XSL steering group and more about getting people with the
right skills available to help out those without. And the ensuing benefits
which might potentially arise of course.

There is a mailing list at
http://mail.xslug.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/london
subscribe to be updated about upcoming events. (it's not at all noisy)

the clash by Ian and changed the date just in time.
Details are available here

It's slated for Tuesday the 29th on the southbank. Anyone interested in XSL

nice to bandy some ideas around beforehand if possible.

Count me in, if I can wrangle the time off work beforehand.
I haven't registered to go to the hackday event because my availability was
