I would be interested in participating.

My dinosaur computer won't go above IE7, and has had trouble with some spread sheets.

Could we ask that packets be dated according to year harvested in a garden or year the commercial vendor packet it for?

I like the idea of a trade list associated with our profile pages, as well as putting up the lists by year's end and trading in January - it works better for winter sowing. Would also love to see a trading database, where each trader could have a database linked to an overal search feature.

Speaking of keeping things easier on the host, would we want to set a limit of how many packets each trader could acquire (That might simplify matters of postage, as well as make distribution of seeds more even) ? Would it be helpful for the host if we packed our seeds individually before sending them in, with the understanding that the host might need to repackage at some point? Shall we ask traders to put their screen names on the packets they send in, to help prevent getting seeds back that they send in and to help host keep distribution even?

I don't keep my trade list updated either *Blush* , but like to create one for each swap I enter and make up packets ahead of time accordingly Angel

Wishing everyone good luck with this swap.
