Any solution that requires someone else to do the work is not going to 
go anywhere.  We don't have worker bees anymore.  What we have are users 
in denial.  

We need to migrate Grex somewhere where software and hardware issues are 
offered, for a reasonable fee.  This community does a reasonable job of 
raising money so I think paying for this service won't be a problem, at 
least not in the short run.  A few (non-techie) folks could 
administrate.  But I don't see this as happening because we're a 
democracy and folks would rather see Grex go down than see their pet 
feature eliminated.

We've had a nice run.  I don't consider Grex a failure but maybe we've 
taken this model as far as it can go.
