The idea is that LEGOFan will be very closely integrated with the other sites.
We would love to both incorporate external data, and share any data we have
locally. Our goal is not to replace anyone, or push any other site out of the
way, but just bring ther various centers of the community closer together. As
Jacob said elsewhere, not only do we plan to make the code publicly available,
we'd love to make the _data_ as available as possible.

It has not been decided if we actually need our own forums, but if we were to
set up any, I'd defenitely want to set up both NNTP and SMTP interfaces. Again,
the goal is to share as much of the data in as many different ways as possible.
