However, if monthly scheduled "webcasts" with a planned agenda and shared screen were offered, along with the ability to view archived webcasts with a decent text description to search by, that would be great.
I like this idea but boy does it require some time a week for someone to do it and take away from CoOp, Family, Project, Hobby time. There is also a cost to this - GoToMeeting is a GREAT tool just expensive ... their are a few alternative but hit and miss on what works. My favorite DimDim was purchased but did work well. I am looking at a few apple alternative included in their suit of server products. Also You are not allowed to view links.
Register or

The wiki is GREAT just wish to get more people contributing to it. For me a simple thing ... For the PCB's you have setup a Wiki page with a PayPal button and ether let it calculate shipping or just do a flat $10. Personally if you make a few bucks off each order - I know you it will go right back into R&D. But would cut down on the PM you get and also help n00bs get the products. Little easier to say go here and buy then send a PM get a quote ...... This also can allow for someone else to help you out with this. It also can do inventory management and all that jazz ... yes it seams kind of store like but a WHOLE lot less of a PITA.
I also think if you posted a giant wish list of thing you would like to do where people could maybe see if they have the skills and step up and help out. I know I would.
Keep up the GREAT work!!!!!!!
