Hi

"Announcement 2000-84, 2000-42 I.R.B.
The Internal Revenue Service is considering the necessity of issuing guidance that would clarify the application of the Internal Revenue Code to use of the Internet by exempt organizations. Accordingly, the Service is soliciting public comment concerning the application of Code provisions governing exempt organizations to activities they conduct on the Internet. The Service has made no final decision concerning the need for additional guidance of general applicability and may conclude no further action is necessary.

Background
Exempt organizations, like other organizations, are increasingly turning to the Internet to carry on their activities. By publishing a webpage on the Internet, an exempt organization can provide the general public with information about the organization, its activities, and issues of concern to the organization, as well as immediate access to websites of other organizations. An exempt organization can provide information to subscribers about issues of concern to the organization as well as enable people with common interests to share information via the Internet through a variety of methods (such as mailing lists, news groups, listserves, chat rooms, and forums).
In addition to advocacy, there are sections on virtual trade shows and unrelated business income advertising, and fundraising
