Bad idea you say? Too much confusion? Well perhaps a little discipline could help some of you. You'll get all the suggestions you need and more, and won't have the problem of working on the same project that someone on the other side of the country is working on also. I love the idea, but I don't have alot of time to spend. I also don't know the net-system very well (I find documentation VERY hard to come by), so I'm leaving this idea for someone else to carry.
