I don't see why it would look bad. 

It is an official project of the Free Software Foundation Europe that
has been started a few months ago. The central document, the GNU
Business Network Definition has been discussed for several months by a
bunch of volunteers including RMS.

Brad knows of it and approves of it (and so does Tim, btw. - he had
the GNU Business Network handouts for the NY LWE printed).

And you should know all this yourself as I told you about it in
Paris.

As I said several times (and also to Guillaume in IRC): it is not
planned to have the GNU Business Network pages hosted on
www.gnu.org. They will be under gnubiz.net and gnubiz.org. I don't
think we also need to have it on www.gnu.org - much more so as it will
be more of an interactive web portal than www.gnu.org itself.

All I wanted was a CVS repository where Derek Neighbors (the planned
head of the GNU Business Network) and I could start setting up some
documents, the first beginnings of the webpage and organize our
tasks. 

Since that seems to be a problem, I'll set something up at home under
cvs.gnubiz.org, I guess.

Later,
        Georg
