[Baypiggies] Wither IronPort?

[Carl J. Van Arsdall]

Maybe the vocalness of the list users was throwing me off.  I definitely 
don't think its worth leaving the group over.  I think two things have 
come out of this, one is that people would like more google meetings, 
the other is that IronPort meetings need some help staffing. 

Does that sound about right?
