I think I may have them as well. The earliest mail I have is on July 
16th 1997

  I see we have a few people on the list, so does anyone have any 
  opinions on dates & times for a meeting.

  As I said in my last mail, I suggest sometime in the middle of next 
  week at the Princess Louise in Holborn. Does anyone have any 
  preferences for a day?

  I'd like to get this confirmed in the next couple of days so that we 
  can announce it in comp.lang.perl.misc.

stage

  Not sure if you got my last msg - I'd prefer Tues or Thurs.
