[Cokewell]

Sticky if the thread is changed to the format I suggested (or something like it)?

[TheDarkSide]

This is a good idea, lets just get it organized.

[Cokewell]

Right Dave. I'll go first. I'd like to keep it at things that we have done before. Feel free to change this into whatever format you think would work best. We can always add as we gain the experience.
