Hi Guys!

Thanks for getting things started. I hope you enjoyed reading up on  
BuddyPress now that the site is live. I'll be adding to and refining  
the information on the site as the project progresses.

I'd still like to add more information on areas such as privacy and  
how we can use open standards to implement sharing of data.

Sam - some work has already started on how we can provide a BBPress  
forum to each group created within a BuddyPress installation. Chris  
Taylor who is helping me out with certain components of BuddyPress has  
already got a proof of concept going. I'll keep you up to date with  
that.

Andy
