First Meeting for 2009

Hi Everyone,

Our first meeting is scheduled for February 10th from 5:30pm to 7:30pm at the Microsoft offices in Southbank.

As we agreed at our last meeting we have arranged for TANDBERG to present their interoperability solutions for OCS.

We also agreed to set up a central repository for all group wide questions, answers, posts and documents.   We now have this available to the group at www.discussUC.com.  All you will need to do is register and start posting your questions, problems and or suggestions.
