Some questions need to be addressed here I think:
-If we are to transfer the case from one house to the next (and Paul Capello is on board by the way so maybe he should be last), are we going to pick up the fees personally or shoot for sponsorship?
-I think it would go much better if we have an overall design hashed out before getting this moving, or else it's going to me a quilt of non-meshing ideas splattered all over the case.
-If a person receives the case to add their own touch, should that person clear the modifications with the group before adding them? Or just mod at will?
-How sure are we that we can ACTUALLY get this bad boy to the pres? Can you get some sort of verification from your source, or at least some strong tips?
-The issue of the president having to pay taxes on each gift he/she receives does raise the likelihood of it's denial. Is there a better way to present it such as giving it to "The ___ administration" or presidential campaign office?
-As the mod grows, and more and more is painted on, glued on, bondo'd on, etc..., the work will become more and more fragile. We need to devise a safe method of transport that ensures each new recipient is spending all their time and effort repairing what was broken in the move.
Thoughts?
This project will obviously not appeal to non-US members for a variety of reasons, but you are all more than welcome to participate should you be inclined. We would just need to figure out a feasible method of shipping.
