I've been working on a draft schedule today as I've had some time due to locking myself out of admin privileges on Drupal Branding and Marketing Committee group which I'm working on - d'oh!

Those who can are meeting up tomorrow - there's another writing club thingy which means we'll be kinda stuck in the newskiff bit again unless we're ok with the pub. I'm happy to save time and discuss on here so more people can join in - there's just stuff to do so ploughing through it so please do let me know your thoughts:

See you later,

Steve

Sure, I'm happy to give it a go for next time. Lets chat more later though, as I think we need more than just sponsorship.

Absolutely!

Absolutely, and that's why you're right for helping to build up that side of things.

It's simple, if you SEE it, then it's probably up to you to help fix it ;)

See you later!
