Just so we are clear the next documentation conference call will have 
people who picked up their phone and just dialed a number to join.  We 
need people who are just good at documentation to help out too.

I am looking forward to helping with the 8-10 person conference call 
beta tests go.  Let me know know if you need some volunteers to dial in 
we have a lot of phones in our office and our fair share of geeks 
willing to wear headsets and install client software.

Who's taking the lead on this beta test by the way?

Cheers,
Kieran
