[Dave Briggs]

Good ideas Drew. I was thinking along the lines of something very
simple, using wordpress probably, with some information about the
group on the main pages, then a blog made up of aggregating everyone
else's posts, just as you mentioned. It might also be worth having a
wiki too, on a subdomain or something, where resources could be pulled
together.

I could probably throw it together in a couple of hours if people are
interested, and am self employed so could find the time to maintain it
too (probably :-))
