Two lists, added early on, which haven't ended up being terribly
useful.  The idea of "readalong" was that people would pick a book,
and read it together and discuss it online as it went.  For whatever
reason it didn't get very popular.  And the online RPG group pretty
much went away, so far as I can tell.  The early archives of those
lists, and discussion here shortly before that, would tell you pretty
much all that's known about it, if you get *that* interested.  (links
to the archives are on the mailing-list page of dragaera.info).
