Good afternoon,

I am also thinking that if this is going to be a drupal implementation  
that we could discuss using the book module, or something similar, to  
create tutorials / how-tos and get rid of the JAWSWiki.

I would setup Paypal, but I'm in Canada and it might be easier for  
someone in the US to do this.

HTH,
Everett
