I have sent Richard a private message asking if he will set up a private forum for the newsletter. We will await his responce. If they cannot do it here. I will ask around for some space.

private forum would be a good idea.
It can be either here (best) or i can ask Hadrian to set up a forum for this at his SE.org forum which i think he would agree, or think about the EzBoard... but they have those ads..

I agree with things said below, this should first base on SEIV and with the time move on, concentrating mostly on space strategies and a little less on other 4x-s.

Today i wouldnt do much as i have one Last big exam at school tomorrow. From tomorrow and on i will be completely free for this project.

(i need to think what would _I_ be doing. I cant just be the director or something..)

Gentlemen,

I have a web server with a Discus board already installed. While it is currently geared towards my wife and I, I do not see any reason that I couldn't put up a private discussion group there.

If you want to see what it looks like, and can handle all the mushy stuff , go to...
http://www.rbectel.co.uk/html/discus/index.html.

Cheers!
Trajan

I was just thinking we could also create a Yahoo e-group. That would also let us exchange files on a main server as well as establish a mailing list. Private, based on moderator approval of members.

Also, trajan, I like your site. I'm a fellow DC/metro area inhabitant! And I have to ask, on your photos page, where are those godly mountains and scenery? That was SO impressive!!! The title is big red Xed.

The mountains are the Canadian Rockies, near Lake Louis and Banf. My wife and I were in a plane overflying the glaciers and such.

I am sorry, that I never had the time to get the rest of the those pic's up, and better format the whole lot of them.

Cheers!
Trajan

I'm not crazy about ezboard/pop up garbage, Trajan's offer sounds ok to me, I'll go with the majority.

Do we set up a sort of outline for the lst issue or so in order to organize the newsletter into specific areas before hand or just use generalization for each issue.

IMHO a monthly would give everyone involved time to get their articles/whatever together and submitted. but again I go with the majority,

just some ideas mac

If you do make a Yahoo!Group, be careful to reset your "marketing preferences". Yahoo!'s default settings are "all spam, all the time".
