Likewise, the "guest" and "password" didn't work for me.  Cheers.

>>Dear Colleagues,
>>
>>The Gilles family, the Scott family and the Dunn family, among others, and
>>your colleagues in Denver, invite you to a gathering later this month in
>>Denver to talk about the future of the Order. We're calling it the
>>"Springboard Gathering" because we hope that it will become a springboard
>>toward something new and life giving in our service to the world and our
>>relationship with each other.
>>
>>We know that this invitation comes later than desirable and we know that 
>>we
>>may not be able to find homes for bed and breakfast accommodation for
>>everyone. But we want you to know that there will be a gathering, that you
>>are welcome and that we will do our best to make you welcome and
>>comfortable.
>>
>>Jack Gilles asked me to include the following six points to clarify the
>>context for these three days: Friday afternoon Mar 30, Saturday Mar 31 and
>>Sunday morning, April 1.
>>
>>JACK'S NOTES
>>1.  This gathering is about the Order and its future. It could also
>>be about the formation of a new Order. It is probably the first of
>>many such gatherings.
>>
>>2.  This gathering is about the future, not the past. We will not be
>>discussing ICA's current reality or future. We may be reflecting on
>>what the ICA has put into history.
>>
>>3.  This gathering is about globality. We will be considering what,
>>where and who for the planet; the context is larger than the USA.
>>
>>4.  This gathering is about action.  Those who come should be
>>considering how they might join with others in some new ventures/
>>centers or synergistic work.
>>
>>5.  This gathering is about the Repository.  We have much work to do
>>to make our past, current and future research available and
>>interactive to a larger audience.
>>
>>6.  Finally, this gathering is about Spirit.  Our collective spirit
>>and the new expressions of the Spirit Movement that we need to serve.
>>
>>DAVID DUNN'S NOTES ON DETAILS
>>We have a web site that is beginning to come alive. We're experimenting 
>>with
>>a web site that is set up to coordinate projects. It will become the
>>"preparation and practics central" for this event that you can find at:
>>
>>http://movementinitiatives.grouphub.com
>>
>>You can access the site by logging in with the user name "guest" and
>>password "password".
>>
>>During the weekend of the gathering, this will also be where you can 
>>follow
>>the conversation and add your input. We'll be posting notes regularly each
>>day and bringing input back to share with the people in Denver.
>>
>>The site has several sections.
>>-- We'll use the "MESSAGES" section to post details about practical
>>arrangements like cost ($125 for breakfast and amenities, and our meeting
>>space).
>>-- We'll use the "TO-DO" section to help keep our organizing team on 
>>track.
>>-- We'll use the "MILESTONES" section to keep track of the dates that 
>>people
>>arrive and that any before and after gatherings will take place.
>>-- We'll use the "WRITEBOARDS" section to post the papers, suggested
>>readings and other materials that people are exploring in preparation for
>>the Gathering. We'll also post notes from our discussions during the
>>Gathering on the "Writeboard".
>>-- A "CHAT" section is a online 'chat room' you can use for text chats 
>>with
>>anyone, anywhere, any time.
>>-- The "FILES" section will be for documents that we decide to upload.
>>-- The "PEOPLE" section lists who's coming, who's considering and their
>>email addresses.
>>
>>We'll have information about who is handling what details available later
>>this week. Watch the web site. If you subscribe to the "RSS" feed, when 
>>new
>>information is posted, you will receive a short headline and summary with 
>>a
>>link if you want to read more.
>>
>>We'll try to put answers to the questions you ask up on the site, either 
>>in
>>the FAQ (the first of the Writeboards) or in a message with related 
>>details
>>as they are clarified.
>>
>>Hppe that you can be with us, in person or 'virtually.'
