Earlier today I was depating a little with CLains and I'd like you to participate in our thinkings.

We were thinking whether we could rent a community server and decouple the BitShares community from invictus to have a real independent economy. atm we are all looking towards Dan and the rest of the Invictus Team all managed by BM.

My proposal would be to
1) rent a v-server for a few bucks a month (for the time beeing a small machine should be enough)
2) get the subdomain community.bitshares.org point to that server
3) set up service:
  - etherpad for collaboration (ie, live editing of the wikipedia article, documentations, etc...)
  - podcasts
  - a community magazine
  - technical howtos
  - market analysis
  - possibly webwallet (once we have once)
  - block explorer
  - financal descriptions
  - etc (feel free to add anything to the list)
.. all under community control
... all under one domain
... all paid by ...
oh wait could setup a delegate to to earn money for the server. Maybe we can combine this with somthing like a community delegate (see https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=4582.0)

What do you think? Worth a shot?

BTW. you can check out etherpad @ pad.xeroc.org (I set it up today fo testing purpose)
