It really does not matter who votes on what.

Maintaing a web site is no small chore.
I understand we have "free" hosting for the present boards.
I can't believe our hosts would be able or willing to donate the manpower required to keep things up todate.
This means a Society meber(s) would have to do the work, which in turn opens up quite legitimate security concerns for the host.

Surely the first step is to find out what members would want to see on a web site.
