While I'm not against having a chat here, the question still sticks in my mind, "does it have to be an entirely new one?" I remember when Lora first set up the Tigerbolt Chat room(the one that I mentioned in an earlier post.) There were several teams who put a way to get to that common chat on their own team's web site. My feeling is that, rather than competing with that chat room(the most popular of any that teams have set up right now, as far as I know,) why not just put a way to get to there on this site? It's as easy as adding a page with a java applet on it. Not only does that provide easy use for the people who visit mainly(if not only) this page, but also keeps those who are used to using the existing system from having to learn an entirely new one, in addition to helping to develop that "collaborative one-stop FIRST information site" that people were talking about a while back.

Just my thoughts...take them for what you will...
