I guessed there would be an objection to dropbox - just as there would be to using googlegroups & google docs, microsoft skydrive, or yahoogroups (all of which I've used, over the years, for collaborative stuff). I'm certainly open to suggestions.
As for meeting times - I do have to travel from Huddrsfield. I can usually get to MadLab (by car & tram) by about 5.30pm - but I have no idea about times to Arcspace during rush-hour.
BTW, I'm getting replies to pings - so i guess the server has power (and all I'm seeing is the network card?) ;-)
Sounds good to me! I do have an issue with Dropbox*, but we can use FSFE's etherpad server, or even the wiki if necessary. I can't foresee the need to send large files to oneanother, but there are Free Software solutions for that too.
Thursday afternoon or evening, up to 19.45 is OK for me. We need to get the server back up and running before then though; I should be able to just pop round one day next week and put in the password.
