Re: Twitter and Iran Elections

Hello All,

I am writing to say that unfortunately I will not be able to make this  
weeks telecon, my apologies.

Furthermore, on the topic of Iran and Twitter, I have attempted to  
send an email to the member-xg-socialweb@w3.org email address (not in  
the public domain), and have had the email returned to me from the  
sender, stating that I can't write to that mailing list :( I will  
resend when I get sufficient permissions.

Regards,

Mischa
