Re: [ui-best-practices-working-group] Google Calendar for UIAWG?

[Vineet Sinha <vineet@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't know if best practices is what the group is about, I think it is 
more general than that. And Kevin does have a good point.

By the process of elimination that leaves 2 and 5.

Personally architecture sounds a little weird to me, so my pick would be 2.

I am not sure if this voting is for the official members and who they 
are but I have put up a quick tally in Google Docs:
