There is not a lot that needs discussing offline--really just the portions of
new release implementation that currently require specific access on tei-c.org,
plus some agreement on where to store information about things that should not
be fully exposed to the public. Three or four of us on an email discussion or
Skype call should be sufficient, I think.
James has volunteered, and I will as webmaster of course. Who else?
