  Guess you noticed that you used a different email address in your previous 
message that wouldn't make it to the list.

  I'll re-post my reply to you to this list as well:

  I will need to know about the organization and what resources are being
requested.  You can send that to me in private email, or to the list: your
preference.

  It may be best to do in private email to me, keeping that message to be
an advertisement for the group if it gets approved. If the group doesn't
fit it may look embarrassing to have that in the archives, even if having
that discussion public would be a possible learning experience for
everyone.

  Other people in this list may have opinions that could sway me one way
or the other which may also be a good or bad thing.  Other people in this
list also have the resources to host websites and other things.  They may
offer you resources if I'm not comfortable doing so for whatever reason.

  I prefer email to the phone as my own time is limited -- I find
telephone chats take longer, and can't happen in 'off hours' as easily.
