It's a good idea. back in the early days, the ITAC used a yahoo thingy to communicate. Some email deal...it sucked, LOL. SCCA set up a forum that we now use. It's like this, but private so we can mutter about the members. KIDDING!
Yes, I am a HUGE proponent of using the board to discuss letters, compile data and 'do our homework" before the call. I wish others were more into it as well.

But, if I get a file from somebody, I scan it, convert it or whatever and post it on our board. I feel open communication is key.
