Just participating in mailing lists is good for keeping up to date, but not so good for getting things changed.
That's what I've found, anyway. Might not always be true.
If you were to go to meetings, you would realize that it won't help in "gettings things changed" significantly better than active mailing list participation would... :-/
I got heaps done in SFO - to the point where I'm happy to pay to get to Stockholm and Hiroshima later this year (I'm self employed, and live at the end of the world, so for me it's harder than most who just have to convince the boss :-). -- Nathan Ward
