It is too bad that i did not have any information of that when i first
came in contact with abbenay, however it is good that this information
is now at the wiki. I must say that i view the actuall forming of an
organisation they way it was now formed with a bit of skepticism.

I personally regard google as an evil company and also question the
choice of google at an initial state. Doesn't excel support .ods? And
why is it so important for it to work with excel? This all sounds
highly suspicous to me.

Information about members is a very delicate subject i am not for
storing any type of information about members outside of our own
control (such as giving the information off to another organisation).
And if we are to store information about our members then how and/or
if ths should be done should be discussed at length but that is
another discussion.
