Guys,

I realised that whoever is doing the adding of the names, will be going through a  lot of pain...
so I created this link:  Google Docs SpreadSheet for Volunteers

So that people can go and self add. It requires a google account login for obvious email privacy issues :)

I suggest for anyone wanting to be added to the list, please go to the link and add urself. add whatever extra stuff u think u need to share...

Hope it helps...

Ankit
