Quoting MJ Ray mjr@phonecoop.coop:
This thread is being distorted by a few posting a lot. Enumerate participants other than me, Brett and Adam:
- Keith posted a question based on a problem;
- Paul suggested a solution and asked a related question;
- Laurie asked a related question;
- Al offered to work on a solution, partly answering Paul;
- Ben suggested a solution;
- Ten asked related questions;
- Dave tried to move the discussion forwards;
- Wayne Stallwood suggested ideas and mentioned an immediate problem;
- Jonathan McDowell answered a question;
- Darren fixed the immediate problem.
I don't think it's safe to conclude that "many ALUGgers are unhappy" from that. Maybe they are, but it's not clear yet.
How about we decide on a list of issues and then try and see if they can be sorted out, either by assigning them to (willing!) individuals or tackling them in more depth on the list?
Things that might be considered:
i) Whether a new style for the site is needed, and what it might consist of; ii) How updates can be handled in the future; iii) Which pages need updating; iv) Who could/should be responsible for what.
There are, of course, bound to be things I have missed, but I am guessing that i) and ii) are the most pressing going by the coverage in this thread.
I'm of the opinion that if the 4 issues above can be sorted while retaining the current site structure, then that's the best option.
