Do you mean a private group within this Ning, or are you wanting to create a group elsewhere?

I like to explore both possibilities when forming this group: one within the NL and a separate one. However, most of my people do not have a NL account, would that matter?

You can start your own group like this one very easily and for very little money. This whole site is created using a Ning from http://www.ning.com. You simply sign up and start. Everything is built for you, and you just choose the pieces you want to add. There are a few charges here and there that very depending on what you want to add, but all of the prices are very reasonable.
