We have a plan to expand the mailing lists, just as you suggest. while also
adding other features to the PLUG drupal:
1) Role based signups for presentations and regular meetings.
2) File sharing
3) Photos
4) Promotional tools (one click --> announce to email groups for our sister
FOSS sites and UG's.
5) Area for Development/HackFest and Special so we can build up our content
for each of our venues.
6) Tee shirts, logo contests, etc. There's nothing like a good tee-shirt to
get our name out there?
7) OpenID
There are a great many Drupal plugins, from Associates, (which would allow
users to enter information related to FOSS friendly goods and services, or
endeavors and sister clubs) to questionnaires, games and contests.
WE are just waiting for Brain at Snaptek.com to get US the login for the new
server, so WE can build in place.
