Ferreting through the histroy of loc.au I found a roll call stamped
17May2000. It's been a while, people have come and gone and the GST has made
life just that little more interesting. Anyways I thought I'd resurrect the
form and toss it out for everyone to asnwer. If replying to this is your
first post (and please do reply if you are lurking) then welcome!
Otherwise for the oldies, let us know what's new.

James (who probably qualifies as an oldie, oh dear.)
P.S. the last roll call thread is
