	This is pretty much the point I am raising. With so many people
on the list and at the meetings, the web page is out of date and 
does not necessarily show that the group is active.

	This is the reason for the original post, to start some dialog
regarding what people want. Many people here have got solid web
development (and some design) experience, it does look a case like
the cobblers children have no shoes.

	Tom is currently hosting it on an ADSL line and also manages
the DNS, I am sure that many of us here have some spare space and
bandwidth to donate.

BTW I have one hell of a hangover this morning, I knew that 
drinking Stella in the heat was not too intelligent!
