So I'm starting with you to explore the possibility and interest level.<br>
<br></div>1. It's possible to not limit it to cob, but could include earthen buildings in general<br></div><div>2. It should be by invitation only, but if it begins through GSBN, then members already in GSBN would be already on the list if they so chose<br>
</div><div>3. We would need a moderator<br></div><div>4. It could be it's own list, on the GSBN list with specific headers, or some other permutation that might be able to take advantage of the structure already set up by GSBN, but only received by members that wish to participate (if possible).<br>
