I can do either immediately before or after the CSS meeting, let's try to settle on the dates asap so we can all book/adjust our travel plans.

I'm happy to host (and manage) services on the csswg.org machine. We can either setup a distinct domain name or carve out some space under csswg.org (or w3ctag.org).

If we can't get the whattf.org domain I see that csswtf.org is available, as is w3cwtf.org. Preferences?

I presume we want a wiki and a spec repo, what else? (and which wiki software?)  I can also easily add a CalDAV feed, Etherpad, IRC log, and a few other services.

We also should pick an IRC channel.

I want to explore the ability to meet during the weekend of Feb 7, 8 which will reduce the time of absence for all non-AUS folks. On the other hand if we have enough people who are willing to show up on Feb 5 it’d be great if you can host.
