In what case? The case being discussed was a meeting Alison attended and has nothing to do with our AGM, it was just an example of one of the issues that needs to be considered. There is nothing wrong with Manchester, per se, it's just a bad venue if all the attendees are nearer to somewhere else. We don't know where are attendees are (although we should probably try and find out - there are sites that make maps of such things for you, although I don't remember what any of them are called), so we don't know if Manchester is a good choice or not. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_UK http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l
