Quahog & Tim:
We're going to involve the community in a big way (and offer special things to iHub/SIers), but the exact specifics aren't decided yet. Just like commissions and a few others things.
As we deal with each phase of the development, we're addressing things one at time. Like the news site. I've got to catch up on what happened in last few days (site looking good!), but I know discussions have sorta started as to how they'll be taken care of.
At this point, biggest thing is getting the site up, web-based tools up, and platform customized.
As Ken said, we got approved by NASD. That was huge and I'm glad that's out of the way.
You guys are 'mine' so when when he & I decide what exactly the deal is (I agree, it's all vague at this point -- and really, that's fine, because right now, there's nothing for you guys to get excited about -- I can't 'show' you anything yet), I'm going to lay it out for you guys [or those involved] in plain English.

p.s. I know this is sorta my mantra lately -- 'I'll tell you when I have more details' -- but that's really how it is. The details and agreements and approvals involved in this type of business is incredible. Nothing like writing a few lines of code on iHub after somebody requests it and saying 'Done.'
