I liked "The Metaphysical Touch" by Sylvia Brownrigg (1998) Picador USA. There's also a UK edition reprinted in 1999. Best book on Kant and email that I have ever read! Not so much the develoment of a community, but the protagonist does join an online group after her PhD thesis on Kant burns up in the 1994 Berkeley fires. FWIW.
