So, if it comes down to it, we're looking at $2,400 to keep us running for a year, yes? I just wanted to make sure we have a solid number if we're looking at possible fundraising. (also wanted to get a feel for how much I could contribute to said number, should it become necessary)

Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
Well. That's a big number, when you look at it.
The question is, have the quick and dirty code fixes done anything to lower the number of connections? And from my understanding, the answer is "we don't know yet." So I'd kind of like to wait till all the facts are in before we make these decisions.
It is a big number. But not as big as I was worried a number like that could be.
On the other hand, if 100 regular posters (our rough guess as to how many regular posters we have) contribute $24 each, we have our $2,400.
It's actually not all that bad.

Looking at it another way, it's only about $2 per member per year. (Not that I'm suggesting we start charging for membership, of course.)

It occurs to me that Buffistas spend a shitload of money at Amazon. Can't we get a kickback if we link to them, here?
The links in the FAQ go to my associates account. I think we've gotten $5 or $10 through it.
I think they should be brought upfront. I'd not go through the FAQ, or remember it.
Upfront where?
Along the left hand side, near the links for filk and Buffista links, I'd imagine.
