I believe Osiris (my provider) is slightly cheaper. Well, that depends on
how much space pair.com gives with its $6/mo accounts. Osiris gives 15mb
for $5.00/month and one email address (additional $10/yr or something like
that). Anyways, it looks like Jacob will be hosting it, and I think that
is wisest because the site can be accessed at either www.ldraw.org or
hugin.risoe.dk/whatever it is - so people don't need to go through those
annoying 'site has moved' pages.
BTW, I gotta take down my old Zacktron site along with the old ring site
(new one going up today or tomorrow) and replace them with 'this site has
moved' pages..

It is a nice idea, we can still do it too, if we just make enough to cover
costs of manufacturing and shipping - no personal profit for the disks.
Unless it is considered acceptable for the person who burns the CDs to
recieve a couple bucks for their efforts..
