Giles is precisely correct in his observations below. James said he would
do this out of a labor of love, and I assuming since he will have a
CD-maker he can make the CDs one at a time when he recieves $$$ from each
member. If you want vinyl it appears to be moot, unless someone is willing
to press records at cost.

Which brings us to another point $$$ (or =A3=A3=A3). We must remember that n=
o-one
is going to be bankrolling this project. James is doing it as an amazingly
cool favour to us on the list. It will, above all, be his project with our
help. I would personally kick in more than $10 for cd like this. I am
curious to hear all the list members stuff.

There are a lot of details to still be worked out, but it already sounds
like it will be one of the most amazing limited edition things around.
James, any sort of time frame for release?
