I rather considered that the semi-official membership list. Maybe it would help if we set up an e-mail reflector of some sort. A listserver that we could subscribe/unsubscribe to might make communication easier. However, I don't know if that is the best way to expose proposed code in that it is difficult to tell if everyone is dealing off of the same chapter & verse. Would a web site for posting code be too painful? (I could probably volunteer some web space in which we would simply keep a page which had different versions of packages for review.)
