Todd, Indeed I did mean org.au my bad. And the rest sounds fine. Regarding auctions, I believe that we do want to be able to post auction announcemnet/updates, but i'd expect that it won't end up being just a marketplace as the auction postings here (...) (25 years ago, 20-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
