If that is the best choice, yes. I suppose this is case where individual importance comes in. If e.g. the project leader cannot make 1000 but 1030, maybe it's not a good choice; if just "some others" aren't there the first half, that's okay. Maybe it's too much to ask the tool to make a decision. Maybe it could just give a list of possibilities, sorted by the sum of products of attendants and their importance, and list the actual attendants and missing people for each to let someone make the decision? -- Please do not send copies of list mail to me; I read the list! .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer and author: http://debiansystem.info `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP (sub)keys?
