Since September 2014. We're about 10 regulars and almost as many different nationalities

Florian (Weps) started the mailing list a bit earlier than that, but it wasn't really active until a certain critical mass was reached.

So would you be ok if someone said something like "I believe I went through something similar to what you describe, and practices X Y Z helped me work with / through it"?

Damn you guys have been around for a long time! I'm surprised we hadn't connected earlier. Glad to include you in this directory. Maybe you could give us some advice from a more seasoned perspective. If you're able to join the video call that could be an interesting discussion topic.

Re the way of speaking in the video meetings, I just deleted that part based on your feedback.
