[Mmwg] With the elections over... can we get to thesubject athand ?

[Luc Faubert]

Ian:
Our charter says anybody can join the list.
As for govs, we can't be sure they'll join but we can try. Wouldn't it be great? We shouldn't wait for them to join before we move ahead, but if they do join, then bravo.
