[CoLoCo] Please respond directly to Jim - Re: Hardy Party RSVP MegaMail

[David Overcash]

We really should hack together a quick and easy web-form to implement into
our website so that users can RSVP by entering their name, email address,
and that they are attending.  We could just throw it to a big page.  And
that's a heck of a lot easier than using a wiki for most people.  I know
wiki pages are ideal (hell, I think they are the greatest thing to ever
happen to online communities and development groups, absolutely ideal for
collaboration), but they can have a bit of a learning curve.

If Nick sets up a quick and easy mysql database for me I can throw together
a simple php script to update the database and view the current list of
attendees.
