I'll look into the calendar.

The only issue I saw with the upgrade was the calendar no longer having links. 


I did notice one more thing, though. Bluehost doesn't appear to have mailman anymore. I don't know how much pain this is going to cause. 


It's fine with me, I'd love to switch to a forum based list instead of an email based one. But whatever y'all pick is fine with me.

Though as a few others have noted, this has been *MONTHS* in process and the club sill has little to show in the way of we functioning website. Truthfully, the old once performed much better than what we have seen thus far. As the site has now been on two different servers, I have a hard time believing this is a "hardware issue" and really just feel that drupal is the wrong choice.

Of course the old site performs better. It consists of static pages 
that can only be updated via a cumbersome process. You are correct 
that MONTHS are involved in the process of working with Drupal. The 
reasoning behind Drupal is simple. 

1. Several volunteers wanted to work with it. 
2. Lots of people use it. 
3. It provides forums, blogs, calendars, etc., and some of the 
volunteers believe that these functions have value. 
4. At the end of the process, we will have more people trained to deal 
with the site and it will be easier to do routine work. 
5. If in doubt, see number 1. 

We were not aware that the site would be problematic on our existing 
VPSlink server, so that resulted in some flailing about. Except for a 
known hardware condition and some upgrades, the current development 
server (not a VPSlink setup) is performing well. As of a few minutes 
ago the response times were sub-second.
