I reluctantly agree that money is a problem. I agree to have a BIG
meeting asap, but give it at least another week for more votes to come
in. That way we can discuss amuta details at the meeting as well.
Also, let's not buy the domain until we decide about being an
amuta. It might be related in some obscure legal way, you know.
Let's hold off everything until after this crucial decision.
And as usual, vote to roji@cs.huji.ac.il
Shay
