Just a suggestion about publicly visible email address.  There are lots of
javascripts for hiding an email address in the javascript code so that when
a email harvesting robot comes along, it can't read the email address
because it is encrypted in javascript.  But when a real browser opens the
page the email address is displayed correctly.  It helps with the robots a
lot.  I started using this a few months ago on client sites and very few of
them are getting very little spam to the address listed on the sites.
Normally they would be getting pretty well clobbered by spam by now.

Just another tool in the fight against spam.  Search google for javascript
email encryption or something similar, or write your own.
