I am quite happy to relinquish responsibility, especially if it's not
benefiting anyone.  However, I was under the assumption that there
were at least a few people who preferred IronPort.  I'm happy to let
go if that's not the case.

I remember the results of the survey, but it seems that different
people interpreted it differently.  Can we setup a poll that simply
asks, "Should we drop IronPort and host all meetings at Google?  Yes
or No"?

Happy Hacking!
