Hi Stanley,
I'm in too!

I have a completely stalled project called Vital Vermont
http://www.vitalvermont.com/mission/
Which already has a basic design, hosting, etc...
I'm using Python / Django.
I have a calendar & the beginnings of a ride share implemented.
I've approached the town of Hinesburg, and they are going to
go with the same ride-share system that the state of Maine uses,
so they weren't interested so much in my offer to set them up
with a custom site.
I'd be willing to do something similar for the co-op...
I do think that beyond the co-op, we could have a time bank for any
group, town, or project that people want to form... so if that's agreeable
then maybe vitalvermont.com is an appropriate place for that sort of thing.
I have to admit, I don't really 'get' the time bank idea. I'd personally
rather stick with cold hard cash. It's a 'known' with regard to taxes...
But if someone could ensure me that the IRS isn't going to ask for
a percentage of our unofficial currency, then I'm content to run with it.
I'm afraid my PHP days (and ASP days, and JSP days) are behind me,
(life is too short.) but if others are interested in Python / Django,
then this might be a great learning opportunity for all of us.
