Cancel? [was Proposed - OpenCSA Steering Committee (StC) Proposed Agenda - 10 April 2009]

hi,
   We've now got 3 out of 7 regrets for friday's meetings. What's this  
about holidays on a Friday anyway? ;-)

   I was wondering if we should just cancel as there are no pressing  
decisions to be made that i know of.

   You can see regular updates on schedules by reading the LSC meeting  
minutes, which are on the  list.

  what say you all?
     cheers,
    jeff
