Ask HN: An Online Spreadsheet Certain People can Edit

How about a public Google Docs form that sticks its data into a private Google Docs spreadsheet?

That would almost work but I'd need a way for the parents to view the spreadsheet without exposing it to the internet or requiring them to have gmail accounts.
Not sure on your level of technical savvy, but it would be trivial to make a website, put it behind a password, and have a simple form for their name and number.
I could do that. I was really hoping there would be something off the shelf I could use (even if I have to install it on a server.)
What's the best method to accomplish this?
(I thought a google spreadsheet might work, but not everyone has a gmail account, and if I make it public I wouldn't want to take the chance of exposing everyone's contact info to the internet.)
