Mwhahahahaha.  <full guteral belly laugh>

Preempting previous work? Political heavy-hitters?  You're joking right?

I went to this meeting and I can assure you I'm not a CLUE heavy weight, 
heck I'd bet 90% of CLUE people dont' know who I am. I'm just some 
normal grunt who made time to attend. This meeting was advertised 
repeatedly, several weeks in advance soas to give people as much time as 
possible to plan so that whoever was interested could attend.  It was on 
a weekday because some people were not able to attend during the 
weekend.  If you chose not to attend, that's your decision, but you have 
_zero_ right to complain of the outcome.  Eventually you have to fish or 
cut bait.

Look folks, this is just a website, non-technical people do this every 
day.  We're not creating a new form of government. Get over yourselves.

CLUE has spent ~3 weeks on something a high school student could have 
done in an evening. (~3 months if you consider Crawford's issues.) I'm 
not familiar with bluehost and I don't care. I know CLUE folks love 
repeatedly talking about the same thing over and over and over and over 
and over and over, rather than actually doing anything but I for one, am 
_VERY_ happy that someone finally made a decision and we can move 
forward. (Actually 6 people came to a consensus.)  Now, the question is, 
will there be follow through or will the whiners start complaining loud 
enough to stop everything and we'll continue on in the current position? 
  I'm hoping and rooting for actual progress, but the force is strong 
with the whiners and complainers on this list.

Is anyone in CLUE actually interested in doing something as opposed to 
just talking about doing something (or whining,complaining)?
