that's awesome! i'll really be looking forward to it.
if i were a mod of the group, then the first thing i would work on would be an official candybal masterlist! it would be used to keep up with who owns which candybal. i would also start adding and accepting submissions into the group, and organizing what goes where (such as deviations vs. journals).
to get the community active again, i would recommend events, such as dtas or myo events. this is especially great, because it gets the word around! some guest designers to be involved at one point would also be good, i'm sure a lot of people would be willing, including me!
if you would like, we could discuss this more somewhere else, such as via notes!
