I'll do that.  Any free domains are good :)

Nope... craphola so far.  Box is supposed to be up last friday, but the guy
couldn't get the necessary hardware together.  He told me today that it would be
up, so I will have to e-mail him (he's a teacher at my school), and ask if it's
working yet.

I've been thinking about this and I do think having separate servers would be a
good idea, in the way that  1)  Both projects get an extra server (you may use ours
as a page mirror), and 2) The projects are officially separate entities at this
point.  I don't believe we are far enough along to be able to merge with Tunes, in
any useable way, as we have not even clearly defined our own needs yet.

No, I make some rash decisions on my own :)  If anyone requests that the domains be
done this way, then I will support them 100% :)

I like to keep a democracy, but I think if I left everything up to vote (like these
silly details), I don't think we'd get anywhere.
