There are some downsides to such an approach (e.g. there is currently no
easy way to quickly draw a diagram on the whiteboard, making files in an
SVG editor and uploading them is difficult to do just to add something
to the diagram in response to feedback from others / to explain
something better), so I think we should only do this if external people
are actually taking part. One option would be to have a physical
meeting, but use teleconferencing to let external people hear what is
going on, and contribute to the discussion if they want.

Shane Blackett has been regularly attending CellML meetings, so he
should be included (CCd).

I believe Edmund has expressed a desire to attend CellML meetings, so I
have sent this reply to him as well.

I believe Nigel Lovell, Socrates Dokos, and some other members of the
optics modelling group at UNSW have been using CellML, and some of their
students have written tools, so I have also added them to the CC list.

We should probably also see if some other members of the Oxford
Physiology group are interested, such as Penny Noble (CCd). Steve
McKeever and Jonathan Cooper from computer science at Oxford might also
be interested. Vincent Rouilly has also been developing CellML models,
as has Dan Beard, so might also be interested.

Also, I believe Jagir is looking into using CellML for his PhD project,
so it would be worthwhile to include him as well, if he is interested.

I have also added cellml-discussion at cellml.org to the CC list. If I have
missed anyone who is interested, please feel free to say so.

Best regards,
Andrew
