As to the question of the time involved:

I am currently hosting a 10 person game (I had 11, but one bowed out).  I
might have to spend about 5 minutes a day on maintainance of the game
(running the HOST program and mailing hte archives to the players_ and
perhaps 30 minutes or so making my moves.

At this point we are almost 2 weeks into the game.  I ahve currently 8
ships (I just dismantled an old ship, too) and 5 planets.  I am reaching
the point in my game where I have to gear up for building a second
starbase to serve as a location for my next set of expansion.

In any case, if you are hosting, figure 30 minutes max a day to the
administrative stuff, and about 15 to 30 for your move.

As for how long this will go, we will continue until the game either dies
of apathy, or May rolls around and everyone gets a real life for the summer.
