Initially I'd have gone along with this, but despite knowing about the
project since the early days, I think there is only one other FOAF'er I
could include based on this (Chaals - and even then I think I was the only
one with a drink ;-). Ok, maybe I just don't have any friends... But I think
a personal meeting as a requirement is a bit too restrictive - agoraphobics
won't know anyone for a start.

Cheers,
Danny.
