I was reading a submission guide yesterday and thought of your post. I don't think it's a problem since it's only a section AND only a first draft. But as you progress, you definitely need to be careful. I believe if there is some form of password or prevention, it should be okay.
Here is a quote from sfwa (http://www.sfwa.org/BEWARE/epublishers.html): Be aware that most ezines are as sensitive about first electronic rights as print publications are about first rights in general. If your piece has previously appeared anywhere on the Internet, many ezines won't want it, or will accept it only as a reprint. (Password-protected display or critique sites, such as those run by various writers' groups, are usually an exception, since the work there isn't visible to the general public.)
