I'm not certain how we should handle this financially. The fee to register
a domain name used to be $70 for the first two years. A friend of mine had
offered us space back when I mentioned to him that we were forming a group.
I am in the process of contacting him to verify that his offer still stands.
Depending on the amount of space that we are allocated, I would at the very
least like to have some basic member pages, plus links to external personal
web pages, if needed or wanted. Plus, having a newsletter page that gave
updates of events and meetings would help to promote a community feeling and
hopefully encourage other lurkers to join.

I would be interested in this, but one concern is what happens if everyone
wants the same subset of pieces? How do we break a stalemate? Otherwise,
I'm all in favor of expanding my collection through discount purchases...
