i think it is a good idea to join, but i think you are underestimating the
work. being a member also means that you get the ability to comment on the
reports produced by the group and it does not really makes sense to be a
member without being willing (or having the time to do this). I think that we
should try to join (Alek is currently figuring out how this can be done for
communia) but that we should only do this if we are confident that we can
actually make a useful contribution (and that is more than attending one
meeting a year). best, paul
