that sounds like a good idea. I think we'll be operating a
pseudo-currency (event currency) for the day. Greenman - one of the
limehouse town hall people will be printing the currency, althoug if we
have time we can try to use the sms/web/mail based CClite system that
Hugh Barnard: one of our presenters from the community currency stream
has been developing: http://sourceforge.net/projects/cclite/

I have a recording, made on my new fangled phone of Mary Fee, another
Community Currency streamer giving a really coherant little rant about
what an event currency is and how it works. Unfortunately, converting it
to a usable non-done-in format is too much of a PITA for me to bother
right now! argh! It'll have to wait for wsfii :)
