I agree that it seems to be quite a bit like WorldLUG.  And yes,
I suppose the two projects could be combined.  As far as I know,
both projects want to build an open structure, where everybody
can take part, so it is hard to see where the conflict would be.

And if the two projects want to compete, it is fine with me too,
as long as they stay open in such a way that they can include
data, articles and code from each other.

Has anybody done a poll of LEGO-oriented webmasters to see how
interested they'd be in participating?

I don't think so.

It sounds like a slam dunk, but you never know.

A problem current site owners may have with projects like
WorldLUG and LEGOFan.net is that they will have to relax their
control they have over the content on their sites to get the
full benefits from the projects.

Play well,

Jacob
