Personally, I'd rather not have to sign up to yet another list just for 
the purposes of discussing one meeting.

There's also the rather awkward issue of data protection. If the list 
hasn't been authorised by UK-TUG where are you getting the member list 
from in order to determine whether or not someone can post to the list? 
Is the UK-TUG membership list (including email addresses) open or closed?
