Yeah, I was thinking a list on the wiki w/o personal emails.  Something
like this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Steve
Robert
Theresa
Doc

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
steve
sean
etc.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
name1
name2
name3

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Doc

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Patrick

etc.

If you don't want to do it, I don't mind being an admin for it.  How did
you set up the gmail bworks.org thing?

I don't mind being an admin for it but I think others should too.  I
volunteer Theresa and Dan right off the bat.  I wouldn't want to
overwhelm Jake with anything that might take away from his schoolwork,
not that this would in the slightest, but he would be good too.

It's been helpful actually.  In addition to the argument that Dan makes,
which I wholeheartedly agree with, I didn't have Jess' email and thought to
send him one via [EMAIL PROTECTED]  It was nice having that
available.  In fact, I'm going to use mine more.  I'm going to weed out
the cowl address and use the [EMAIL PROTECTED] address as its
replacement.
