[wplug-internet] pair, aspStation

[Bill Moran]

Having missed Friday's meeting, I apologize if I'm bringing up things
that have already been hashed over once ...

Do these services include wiki software (or other CMS)?  I think we've
demonstrated conclusively that such software is pretty damn important
to the smooth running of WPLUG.
