I'm certain the Daemon News crew would like to talk about "Daemon News,
the first year."  The timing is very serendipitous.  I'll let Chris and
Brett continue this discussion, as I'm sure it will be discussed in
the Daemon News core mailing list.  We'll get back to you as soon as
we have a more formal answer.

It might be fun to get the co-columnists for each of the month columns
to run panel discussions on their areas of expertise: newbies, security,
etc.  Imagine how much fun Greg and I could have fielding questions in
a Daemon's Advocate panel discussion.  ;^)
