Quote from Skellum's post above. "It seems the idea of a negative exchange will not die. However, we don't ever quite get this off the ground."
With a bit of searching you will find that this did take place and Skellum was one of the ones who took part in at least Round 4
http://www.film-and-darkroom-user.or...php/photo/1580 as did Terry S (Rounds 2,3 and 4) and Rob Archer (Round 1).
Just a little bit of historical perspective on this. After a bit of discussion as above this exchange did happen but only ran for 4 rounds before it died due to lack of interest. If you read all the discussion the main area of concern seemed to be loss or damage to negatives but as far as I know there were no problems in that regard.
The results can be seen in the Exchange Gallery if you scroll right to the bottom beyond all the Print Exchange section.
If people are interested in resurrecting this it would effectively be Round 5.
We would need a volunteer to do the organising of the exchange and as Skellum has made the suggestion on rules would he be willing to take the task on?
The initial exchange was organised by Steve O and his rules can be found here:

This would be a good basis if it is decided to run again.
