I hear you Ben, it's just that your reply-posting problem makes it kind of
like waiting for an echo to finish before replying. By which time something
else may also have been said.

This idea i like. Perhaps its something we can adopt for entry of all members
in the future. Though then we're heading down that path of are Lego groups for
everyone or for a select few. In which case I'd say : to be a member you'd
need to meet certain number of guidelines unless that condition is veto-ed by
a certain number of other members.
for eg.
One condition being: to be a member of .org.au you must live in Australia.
But this condition can be overruled if enough people say "though they don't
live in Australia they would DIRECTLY contribute to the organisation.
