Subject: Re: Tynan

I worked with Tynan on Saturday. He expressed interest in publishing his
website online. If that's something you're comfortable with, that might be
another thing to work on between now and next session.

Joel, is there any chance we could set up an S3 bucket (or something else)
to make it easy to publish this work? I have experience with the S3 thing
(it's trivial) if you want me to get it started.
