I've just registered <a href="http://ventilators.nz" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">ventilators.nz</a><br>
<br>
Can one of our club members with the resources please set up a server for mailing list and collaborative website/blog etc etc so we can get focused on this and start recruiting people from around the country? LMK DNS data ASAP.<br>
<br>
Is there someone here with the skills who could devote their time to site design/admin?<br>
<br>
Let's get this party started.<br>
