Texas does sound like the best place since it is central. If September-October is the nicest, I suggest the fall equinox, or say the weekend of September 23/4. There was someone coming to the States in July to California. If they want, we could put together a West Coast meeting for them. These meetings will be easier to arrange once the contact list is up, since there will be a list of scheduled events as well. I'm aiming for two weeks from now for a functional rough draft - and will keep everyone posted. Arthur McConnachie [log in to unmask]
