Cc-hk mailing list

[Ben <chpapa AT gmail.com>]

It is nice to see the list growing so fast -- which means there are
lots of people interested in a CC-HK project. :-)

Sorry that I cannot come tomorrow since I have another meeting,
looking forward to any thought / idea / action come up when some of
you meet tomorrow before / after the talk.
