I think this is a great idea... anyone see any drawbacks?  Anyone have
any experience doing this kind of thing?

i don't know the particulars of trilug's hosting at inflow, but would it be 
possible to run our own DNS server with dynamic update capabilities?  that 
way members could get membername.trilug.org mapped to their own IPs.  a quick 
glance at freshmeat showed several possible candidates:

http://www.cencula.com/dynamicdns.html
http://www.ddts.org/about.php3
http://www.dhis.org/
http://freshmeat.net/projects/dyndnsservice/?topic_id=150%2C149

just a thought - jason
