On a similar line to Shaun's message below, I wondered what cgf-ers thought
of the following issues/questions:
1. is there going to be a cgf gathering in any form? Should there be?
2. what about a cgf 'not the conference dinner' (whilst not treading on
Shaun et al's toes re below)?
3. to what extent does the timetabling of study group agms at the same time
mean that people are unable to attend several of these - do/would people
like to attend several of these, and how could this be achieved?
Just thoughts...
