Very true. That's the most important priority for evolt.org as a whole until
we secure a host and enough revenue to pay for hosting.

Ok. So with this idea, are we either:

a) getting a charity project, making a competition out of it and choosing
the best entry or

b) getting a project and making a few groups to work on it, and getting
people to sign up with them and chooisng the best from them?
