Yes my apologies, I was going on a more general meaning of consensus not a
strict literal meaning, and notice I added the modifier "so far".
How about "the opinions so far" then.  And yes they are not all agreeing on
the same thing, my point was they all agree to change it from Tuesday to
"something else".

Well if you are more experienced in dealing with issues like this what would
you suggest?
Are you good with "herding cats"? :)

Anyway if the group wants to keep it on Tuesdays then fine.  I'll just catch
up afterward on the report log on the list, and wait until the meeting time
gets changed, or something.
