	We already have the reviews newsgroup.  We have used articles from there
after contacting the author for permission.  I realize that we could use the
articles without explicit permission but it is nice to let someone know you are
using his/her work.

	What about a mailing list to start?  What kind of things would be talked
about in a newsgroup/mailing-list?
