That's what I meant - if there are <6 people, meet in person in
someone's hotel room, and then you've got a phone right there so
everyone else can dial in.

We could certainly come up with a set of 'status updates' if people
would like that.  I.e.

	pidns updates - Pavel/suka
	netns updates - Eric/Daniel/Benjamin
	task containers - Paul
	memory container - Balbir
	memory checkpoint - Dave
	what do vserver/openvz want to see upstream next - Herbert/Kirill
etc

Also if people are interested we could try to do something like that
every 1 or 2 months, presumably by phone most of the time, though we
could try to always sync it with some conference or other and see
whether a few people can meet in person just for fun.
