Brent: I'm very much in favor of this idea. If ExI had had the money, we
would have hired someone to do something like this quite a while ago. It
could be a great addition to the value of the website and help build the
extropian community.

If we can gather the programming skills necessary and get commitments to
get the job done (and be sure that someone will maintain it), I would be
delighted. A members' interests/contacts page would not only be useful, it
would be -- as you note -- a tribute to Sasha by following up on one of his
ideas.
