It is unfortunate that the dates collide but I also remember that
considerable discussion of those dates occurred here on the OSLIST, and
somehow we all missed the possible conflict. Speaking just for myself, I
didn't have a clue when Genuine Contact was connecting, so if there was
anything like a competition, I missed all that totally. As Lisa points out
-- the Goa dates were set in the window between monsoons and high season
rates. Given the choice between getting wet and blown away or going
bankrupt --  I choose neither. So for me it is On to Goa! -- and we can
certainly WIKI our way together.
