OK, so if Dan has any input soon or if we could contact him, we ask him if he's willing to point his DNS at our IPs? Prefer .com, .org, or .net?
Like I said, I would be willing to put up the web space, unless someone else has a better deal (static IP with in-house server and OC3 maybe?). As for PR, you're right Leif. We should compile a comprehensive list for release all at once, slightly before launch. Christopher D.
