I think so too. In time I suppose this will happen more in time. 
I suppose these seminars mainly perform the function of helping all of us stay in touch and discuss important issues/developments,
but you are right that invitations should be extended to others who could benefit from 
picking the brains of the listers (listees?) :)

Maybe we should have an "accessibility reserve", we could ask Mr M Martin if
he thinks that'll fly.

>> PS enjoy the weekend

Absolutely, you too.
