I wasn't aware it WAS an SVLUG-affiliated-service.  It's not AFFILIATED
with anyone. It just happens to be an SVLUG member who won the box and is
setting up the site. There might be other SVLUG people donating
goods/services towards getting it up, but its not because SVLUG is
"affiliated" with it, but because we happen to have a common interest in
helping out said site-owner. :)

Besides, remember the reason for this site: To appeal to the average
mom-n-pop joe schmoe. "svlug" is meaningless to them, and they're not going
to remember it. It's gotta be catchy and its gotta end in ".com". You can
argue about this isn't the right place for it all you want, but the reality
is that the target audience won't "find it" unless you do that.
