(Disable javascript!) The coolest thing IMO would be a web-board for threaded discussion much like the email list, but with better control over archives and the ability to read backward/sideward within a thread. HTML would not be a problem then, obviously, leading to a renaissance of accented-vowel-conlangs, etc etc. Could be easily password-protected. Email-lists are not very "scalable", but a good web-board might be more so, I'm not sure. The next step would be a true news-server, which is certainly so; Linux, naturally, has a good one ... Just anticipating the increased interest and traffic.
