Lisa: "Google Groups. I look forward to the IxDA site owning our
content instead of Google."

David: "I don't think a simple discussion group is what Lisa is
envisioning here."

I just want to make a small point on resources and tools.

Lisa, I agree.  However with google 'owning' the content they also
take ownership of the maintenance.  Its a tradeoff.

David, google groups as we've been using it in Boston is far more
than a mail list.  The Pages function is for all intents a basic wiki
with the added benefit of being hooked in to a mail list.

While this isnt perfect, I do get a little bee in my bonnet when I
see people shoot for the ideal when there's a work-able alternative
and your resources can be better allocated.

I dont have a boner for google, but I'd rather see development on
more critical issues - the resources section, bugs in gamma etc.  And
make do with 3rd part tools that meet the 80/20 requirements.
