Would like t know too about how we goig to keep the public server 
provided with services and updates to those services.
The svn option looks like a nice one but the truth is it is, even after 
multiple emails about updated services, not updated so i for one am 
about to stop seeing it as a potential option. This is where swx would 
and should be great in. Offer public services and keep them in sync with 
latest versions of those same services.
For example worked hard a while back to get Pownce API complete. Then 
putted in svn, emailed about the updates, emailed again about the 
updates, and today there still is no Pownce api on the public gateway.
this is not to sound ugly but this is simply how it 'not' works at the 
moment.
Same for the two times call for this same discussion. Were to go, what 
should we do, what can we do, how will we organize this into a working 
setup etc etc..

SWX is great in it's usage, public services offer and ease of usage. But 
then those 'default' updates and new services should be online in matter 
of minutes instead of simply NOT ;)

As long as we talk about this stuff it's great but only talk will not 
change a thing.

Not to be ugly or anything here just how it goes in practicum at the moment.

discuss points are (i think)

--public gateway
--as3 version SWX
--versioning for the public services
--leading the project
--pr (as in make some noice like the noise we had last year ;))
--who is who and who can do what, and why is that not happening :D
