- Looked into hosted mediawiki, not a lot of good options.
- No new volunteers for Web Admin stuff, Eldon may start trying to come to more open houses.
- Should we set every member up with a freeside google login/email address/etc? May make sharing google docs, etc easier with membership. (You can often "share with organization", which is easier).
