Raring to go

We're all raring to go, but Clare is sick and so unable to meet with us today. We want to get weaving, but need Clare to define the parameters and her and our involvement in the task. No one wants to steal her thunder, and she's the key person to undertake the research given her specialism, so we want her to drive on this. Graham took the minutes today, so he's going to circulate them and ask Clare what she wants to do and what (if anything) she wants to delegate. We'll have a better idea of what we are all to do then. Hopefully she'll pick up the e-mail so that we don't have to wait until the next meeting to make further progress.

I looked at project management tools for Graham, who is going to be drawing up the Gantt chart etc. Found the following:

Rather than request Microsoft Project through IT (a potentially fruitless and thankless task), Graham is to look at free online tools, although we may be able to purchase something on a monthly basis through the allocated budget.
