When is this going down?
My first assumption is around Christmas, but since people might have to be with their family's or won't have access to the computer, there will probably be a week to two week period where the gifts can be exchanged before it will end and any further gifts would be late. Not to mention this isn't only about Christmas (even though it's Secret SANTA, derp) and it seems silly to restrict the giving to that week only.
So I'm thinking anywhere from the 22nd to the 29th. Since the 22nd is almost only a week away though, if that time frame is too small, from the 22nd to the 2nd of January would probably be the longest I'd say it should run. That way if it's late for Christmas, it can be like a New Year's present. (:

Cool. So how will this work then? One person decides who gets who? Or a random person gets another random person via third party program?
Since the list seems to be filling rather quickly, I will probably get some people to help with the decision process. I know we're getting some coding done but I'm not sure how it's going to work just yet? But it seems as though a third party program will be creating the pairings of exchanges, but if not that, I'll most likely just select a group of people to help me divide up all the names.
