After requesting information on whether there was much coverage in Australia of the lively meeting of that country's National Conference of Priests, I received a note from Desmond Farmer with the following:
Just to let you know that there is a lot of interest here in Australia and on the website below (of which you are probably aware) there is a discussion thread entitled 'Our priests at work'

Here is the latest conference report:

The Catholica site is an especially interesting venture, an example of a Catholic community organized in cyberspace but that also occupies real space and time. It's members get together in homes for discussion and socializing. Brian Coyne is the driving force behind the effort. Read the "About Us" section.
