you are in. I encourage other people to do the same: log in to Savannah,
in your personal page follow "Group Membership", search for the "masterlibre"
project (group) and then "Request for Inclusion".

I have started the task manager with a task that will be used to coordinate
the meeting on the 25th. The task manager is very similar to a forum --you can
append your comments-- with the difference that you can assign
responsabilities, priorities and schedule. Let's use it.

Please notice that tasks are not handled by mailman, but by the savannah
software (something similar to sourceforge and gforge).

I suggest that local groups use the same tasks manager for their specific
needs. For example, you can define a task cathegory for those tasks associated
with the acceptance of the Master in your Institution. In that way we can
follow what different local groups are doing.

Cheers,
