What seems to be missing from all of this is your understand that the drupal based site had very real and serious performance issues. Adding more content to the drupal site is not going to resolve that issue, or make it better. In all likelihood it will worsen things. So if drupal is not the choice made the club, then all your effort was for naught.

I would be happy to discuss with you how CLUE can be run as a multi-experimental club where everybody does what they want and enjoy. In case you were not aware of it, the latest server meeting pre-empts the work that was done earlier on the website and mail-list.  ( see previous meeting notes )  The political heavy-hitters went to the meeting and the direction of the effort changed.   Boom  ..... in a heart-beat ... like the word was laid down.  I chose not to go to the meeting and I think that was wise.  I plan to do my own website fun project.  Maybe CF will help me out .... maybe not .... no problem either way.
