Great stuff Velichka.

By the way, we have a standard guide for running virtual meetings that
could be useful:

<http://wiki.okfn.org/Events_Guide/Meetings>

In line with those suggestions I've booted an etherpad here:

<http://econ.okfnpad.org/meeting-2011-12-18>

Which people can add their name to with agenda items.

Also: one request for the future: could we think about moving this to
the week -- in my experience it is much more likely to get people
attending if is, say, a week day afternoon than on Sunday ...

Sounds great. I'd also like to discuss:

* Energy (now that Energy is integrated with this Working Group)
* DataHub Economics group - http://thedatahub.org/group/economics
