Dan Kulinski,

Since you seem (thus far) capable of work, rational thought, and effective discussion, would you mind functioning as a project manager until we've got the goals achieved?

These are the goals of the project as I see them:

 - Website updated 
 - Website hosting reviewed (maybe changed)

This is a "minimum success" metric.

 - Mailman lists continue to function
