20:06:46 organisation? 20:07:05 usually we use the forums for most of the work 20:07:24 but there is a trend to use social networking websites like Google+ 20:07:49 nods 20:08:01 does everyone help out? 20:08:29 well, people interested in working on something usually get into the conversation 20:08:41 as everything is public, this is not a problem 20:08:59 Cracknel: do you see any issues coming up for the Romania LoCo in the future?
