**Following a discussion on the trust-fundraising discussion group on Yahoo! Groups
about other online forums (OK, fora) for fundraisers in the UK, here is a rough 
and ready collection.**

I plan to update UK Fundraising’s original list of web/email fora for fundraisers
that the site used to list for four or five years until 2002. In the meantime, here
is the list. Have we missed anything?
