Fred,
I'm guessing the reason the main PB site is not often updated is that you've got your hands full with developing PB 4.0 and you can bet none of us here want you to be distracted from that task.

That said, I think it would be for the benefit of PB ie. you and for the benefit of all of us who support you and PB to maintain a more dynamic site.

Unfortunately, that would require quite some work and attention.

So here's my suggestion, why not let some of us here in the community maintain the site for you? Any pages you would rather not have maintained such as the purchase pages, etc. would be excluded.

We could make changes to a temporary site available only to those in the community, with a required login. (if no one else has a web server, I'll volunteer my webserver)

Suggestions could be made, changes made and approved by majority etc. and finally when a new version is available, submitted to you for your approval. You can review it on the temp site and when satisfied we can send you the site.

What does everyone think?

And more importantly, what do you think Fred?

Depending on how "crazy" we went with changes, it could end up being more work for Fred than now (very little).

cheers

Well, I'm not interested in the look and feel necessarily. I'm more interested in making sure the content is accurate.

It does not reflect good upon PB when new potential users come to the main site and see data that is out of date.

They don't know it's out of date. They have to assume it's up to date.

The goal is to keep the site up to date without making any additional work for Fred. That's it.

OK - not a re-write - just some routine maintenance.

Seems logical.

cheers
