Wish list: Building a community

I'm trying like many to build a community.   As I would guess most hosts are!  And what totally stinks is that every year, we have to create a new weekly event (losing essentially) the community we built up from last year -- because each and everyone has to re-register for the next year series.  This so stinks!  I really wish that there was some way for you not to make us do this OnZoom.
