Excellent.

Unfortunately I will now have to be in Berlin 21-23, in order to attend a
sprint for Document Freedom Day.

I agree. Also, Michael De Jong (see FSFE interview:
http://blogs.fsfe.org/fellowship-interviews/?p=299) will be in town and can
potentially come along to the meeting; he's interested in the hosting project.
He's famous for setting up the Unhosted project which is making a big impact
on the web by allowing users to store their own data when using web services,
instead of having it hosted by a company. Mozilla has already implemented this
system for its next generation web-wide login system, that will hopefully
eventually replace OpenID.

*Are you guys happy to run the meeting without me, and if so shall I ask
Michael to come?*

Yup, I'm heading back over to Arcspace today to (hopefully) finish setup. Out
of interest I need to:

- add more RAM to make it faster
- install Virtualmin control panel (http://www.virtualmin.com/) so we can
configure the server using a web browser
- configure secure access via ssh so we can get command line access remotely
- try and make the machine remotely accessible by either configuring Arcpsace's
router to forward requests from the internet to our server, or use a dns
routing service, or both (e.g. http://dyn.com)

Best,

Sam.
