Wiki

The Scrivener has not yet reached his if-one-more-person-asks-me-about-the-wiki limit. The Scrivener pointed out that until you hear the wiki is up, you can assume it is down. The Scrivener will in fact email the cthulist once the wiki is up. In the meanwhile, he will email the cthulist to explain the if-it's-not-up-it's-down protocol. (*)

Publicity

Hendri suggested involvement in charity events.

(WORG Day used as an example, but that's not really a charity, is it?)

Then other discussion happened but I reshuffled it for clarity, then we were "done like the son of a gun". And then I did the minutes in a reasonable amount of time, too, so no excuses on the gazebos, Eric.

Andrea, I have a cheque from Mike for you. (*)

Well, it's made out in your name, so unless I change mine, it's useless to me.

(*) Designates a Thing to Do.

He solv'd all problems ne'er so deep.
