oh, forgot to comment on the ASF part. I would like to have the ASF
handle the money. I don't really want to be on the hook for the
accounting and tax issues involved if we start getting a real flow of
money. I will talk this over with the ASF guys. There isn't really a
plan yet for how to handle this within the ASF, but I know this is
something they want to help out with.
