Just to be clear here: PLUG is not a legal entity and does not track
donations or funds of any kind. Anything of value given to the group is
not tracked. PLUG does not accept cash or any instruments of money since
we have no entity, structure or policy to handle it.
That said, tracking who can do what is a good idea that has been bounced
around for some time. It would have many purposes even beyond the group.
For example, Thrum would like to setup a list of people knowledgeable is
various subjects that could be guest lecturers at SCC or other community
college campuses (campi?).

Again, funding is not the goal. Helping new "customers" is an excellent
goal.
