I'll jump on this wagon, too!
Also, the dancing avatar idea is not that far out. I've thought - and even begun work
a few times - on a way to notate dances so that I could play them as programs for X's
and O's on a screen to test run dances that I've found or written. I guess that an
avatar is just a little more graphic design for an X or an O! I might also store the dance
notations in a DB and print them on cards (or iphones) afte translation into English (or
French or Japanese)

Wow!
The level of response is amazing! Guess I'll jump on the bandwagon,
too--done a fair amount of content management setup from scratch using perl
and javascript to cobble together tools for non-techies to use for site
maintenance, so there might be times when I could pass along easily-bolted
on stuff other could use or just help with problem-solving. And I'm hoping
there are some experts with various well-developed systems like Drupal and
Joomla that have tips to share as well...
(Bizarre aside: anyone remember Second Life? Wouldn't it be cool if you
could program avatars to do dance moves and have a virtual contra dance, or
test dance sequences? Actually, forget that! It's totally against what I
value about real dancing! )
