I tend to agree with Daniel, as much as I want to have an AGM ASAP. It
is worth setting up from the start as we intend to continue, and we
are just having that slow thing that happens when you need to interact
with the real world despite being in all different locations. But we
are making progress... really... the bank account is half-opened. The
web interface for signing up membership half-works. Please bear with
us. :)

cheers,
Brianna
