The only way the the meeting could have gone better would have been if
there had been beer, snacks and foot messages.

Guessing the meeting would be a bit about using IT Dept resources. I
prepared a 1 page breakout of resources used by University groups vs
community groups:

Results of the meeting were:

	We have an official university connection with Paul Marion

	We will have 24 hour access to the building.

	We will try to keep the university websites we host
	looking like the official university stuff.

Selected happy moments:

	Tom Costello saying I was one of the top 3 unix guys on campus.

	Diana Prideaux-Brune saying she knew about http://mvhub.com

	John Wooding saying I was a funny guy.

Happy quotes

	JW:  "This isn't the Spanish Inquisition"

	DPB: "We don't want to get in your way at all"

	JW: "Of course I would write letters of support."

	JT: "No, I don't have any concerns"

	DPB: "Since you are providing services, we can
	 	easily justify not charging you rent."

	DM: "This is like some kind of anti-Spanish Inquisition,
	     this is great."

	DM: "I'm going back to school January 2008, I swear to
	     you, my mom and Howie Goodell"

Dramatic moments:

Twice, John Wooding asked approximately:
	
	"So why do these university groups use you instead of
	 official university stuff."

The first time I answered:
	
	"Well, we have relationships with a lot of the groups,
	 already. For example, I've known Felicia Sullivan almost
	 10 years. Also because we're so small, we're sometimes a
	 little bit quicker."

The second time, I answered:

	"It might be better to ask those groups, I can't really
	 speak for them."

Attending: Diana Prideaux-Brune (DPB), me, Eric Bryant, Jeff Thompson
(JT), John Wooding (JW), Tom Costello (TC)
