There are a lot of points being raised on this list but for now I shall 
just pick up this one.  Ideally it would be wonderful for everyone to 
take turns to facilitate.  However it takes certain skills to facilitate 
well.  This is particularly important when the meeting gets 
contentious.  More people should learn these skills but not everyone is 
capable sadly.  No one comes back to badly facilitated meetings.
