Well, it may be that by asking those interested in managing the group to take it outside I've 
managed to scare off your volunteers.  Other than Dennis I don't see anyone who's worked on Drupal 
on this list.  But I'm sure that can be fixed if necessary.

I'm not imaginative enough to understand the interest in Drupal.  We have a list, we have a web 
site.  That's enough to have a group, though we could use something more to make the group more 
live.  Drupal doesn't seem to me like the thing we need but I'm happy if others want to work on it. 
  (I'll say more later about what I *am* interested in.)

So if we were to sit down together here are the kind of things I would ask:

What does your infrastructure look like and how does a piece of it get carved out for CLUE use?

What kinds of limitations are there?  What kinds of things would make it awkward for you to continue 
providing to CLUE?

How do we keep our services available in case of the demise of you, your provider, Ford owners, or 
Twinkie haters?

What kinds of administration will be required and who do we expect to do those things?

Some of those may be premature.  Some are just my curiosity.  In the end I'm much more interested in 
availability and continuity than new features.  I could tell you a long story of CLUE's history with 
hosting, and a short one about our current state.  Most of the group doesn't know any of that but 
maybe it's an obsolete perspective that doesn't matter anymore.

Hopefully you don't feel like you've been completely abandoned.

Thanks!
Dave
