It would also be silly to just sit in a room, working on bugs. Attendees
can do that without meeting each-other face-to-face. If folks get
together, I think they should talk about the Big Picture. They just
should not make any final decisions.

I agree that Adrian's couple of years of "fiddling with stuff" should be
included via conferencing and/or some kind of summary document. The
latter would be very useful at any rate, but I doubt Adrian has time to
prepare a nice summary.

Cheers,
