I think that's very appropriate. I'm not entirely sure *where* to
put it though. Wouldn't it legally be most effective if this license
language were spelled out right before the person hit "join"? Also,
how do we cover existing members? I'm not sure putting it in the
Club FAQs helps us much from a legal perspective, does it? I'm not
very up on cyberspace law, which is completely developing. You haven't
really put someone on notice that you're taking their thoughts & incorporating
them into another forum unless they know this up-front, before they join
-- have you?
<p>Perhaps I'm being too academic about this. Heidi -- thoughts?
