Fourth.
I hope you don't think that I just come over for the spells and everything. I mean, I really like just talking and hanging out with you and stuff.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It was a nail-biter! For me, anyway....

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie
Wow! That's so funny. I had pretty much accepted that it probably wouldn't meet quorum. I'm excited! It might not make a lick of difference, but who knows? Can't hurt.

So I was thinking, would there be value in compiling a comprehensive b.org e-mail list for those who'd like to be on it? I know we often take things back channel when someone has a great, "Hey, let's do X for X idea," but I know it can be kind of hit or miss.
I would volunteer to compile and keep the list updated unless someone else wants to. Or, maybe even have a few people with the list. I have gate-keeping ideas if people are concerned about that, but I won't waste time with that now. I'm really just curious to see whether the community thinks it's a good idea. Not the "the community" ever has just one opinion. Usually.
Thoughts? I feel like we've floated this idea before and it never really took off, but I can't remember specifics. Obviously, it would be opt-in with opt-out ability any time. I know we have our regional lists, but one comprehensive list could be useful.
And last, I have no personal investment in the outcome; it's just occurred to me a few times over the years, so...
