A lot of effort has gone into ensuring that the site costs us nothing to run.  The server and associated pipes are managed by the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill (which is a little ironic considering that NC is Republican leaning territory).  But more importantly - we don&#039;t need donations - and that also means that we have eliminated a potential conflict of interest when it comes to editorial policy.</description>

		<description>Catrina, you&#039;ve probably answered this somewhere but I couldn&#039;t find it (well, I&#039;m lazy and haven&#039;t really looked) but does this site cost you money to run?... The reason I ask is I recently made this site my home page, which means the server will get LOTS of page request from me. If your paying for this then it will be costing you a lot if I leave politic.osm.net as HP.</description>

		<description>Spam inbox at 8

Thanks for bringing the discussion here, and just for reference I wasn&#039;t pissed-off or anything.  I was simply being frank with you.  Nobody here is paid, nobody is under contract, and there is no formal framework though which administrators can provide such an assurance without subjecting themselves to potential liability.

I certainly will not be taking on any legal liability without the appropriate legal, administrative and technical framework that would allow me ensure such a commitment.  I would also advise other potential administrators to follow my lead.</description>

		<description>Was wondering about discloser of Ip&#039;s,  email addies etc, Normally its a given that they wont be disclosed, but I noticed that this site seems to have a distinct (no ESJ) feel about it and was wondering what would happen if/when he shows up and it got me thinking. ( Catrina, I wasn&#039;t trying to piss you off, but seems I did anyway, that wasn&#039;t my intention)

So, I asked &lt;a href=&quot;http://pollbludger.wordpress.com/2008/07/10/sex-drugs-and-insurance/#comments&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;

		<description>Links have been updated to include all of the above suggestions.  I&#039;ve sorted these into &#039;News&#039;, &#039;Polling&#039; and &#039;Blogroll&#039; just to streamline things a bit.

Goodnight all.</description>
