I've put the edited partial transcript of Sunday's informal poetry gathering on my website.

You can access it from http://www.erzo.org/~kimberly/marrach/.

As some of you may have noticed at the time, I had some trouble cutting and pasting this transcript on Sunday. As a result, there are some sections of the meeting which got missed ... but all the poems are there.

This cutting and pasting problem resulted from the fact that I'm using the Java client on my Mac. If any poets are using the Active-X client on their IBMs (in Internet Explorer), you can apparently log a whole scene without cutting and pasting, just by clicking on a button. (Color me jealous.)

If someone else who has this ability could do the actual logging at future meetings, I would still be happy to edit and post the transcripts.

Actually, we haven't released the new ActiveX client that allows logging yet ... the client still has a bug where it crashes when you hit the refresh button. Soon, though, we hope to make a new version of the PC/IE/ActiveX client available with some added functionality.

But is is much easier to cut-and-paste on the ActiveX client right now than the Java one, because the Java client has some annoying focus problems.
