RWO for Sale

[barry]

Its a great pity that these sort of sites arent commercially viable

[GoSouth33]

Really appreciative of all the effort people put in towards the running of this site. Thankyou one and all.

[ScottH]

Just to keep you in the loop.

I have had some interest, and am currently in early, early phase of discussions.
Will keep you informed.

It's like giving up a child. Not an easy decision.
OK, maybe that is a bit extreme, but you get my drift.
Actually, giving up some kids might be easier.

Offer is still open to others interested though.

My computer skills are more likely to break the internet than yield anything useful, but I am happy to help in other areas
And like others Thanks Scott & Co for all the work you put into the site-and for keeping us in line when required

Before this thread gets lost ahead of the Friday build up, I thought I'd advise that Danzar has just had a long chat with myself about taking on RWO.
This is not a certainty. He wants to make sure he'd be doing the right thing by RWO.

He also thinks you all should have right of refusal if another RWO member who has been more involved over the years than himself wants to take it up.
Essentially, He's flagging his interest subject to no one else coming forward.

After speaking to Dan I'm confident he has the best interests of the site and the skills at his service to take on the responsibility.

Thanks Dan.

Any objections?
Please speak now.

[erica]

None. Good on you Danzar for putting up your hand - thanks/

[Danzar]

Thanks Scott and thanks Erica. From our conversation, I have an even deeper appreciation of what you've put into RWO over the years. Seriously commendable.

And I'm quite happy to step back if another long-standing member wanted to take this up.

I for one, welcome our new overlord Danzar.

I suppose that since I'm the only other person that uses the wiki, I should put up my hand to help get it working again.

[Danzar]

Ugg, thank you! And we have our first 'official' volunteer!

[Untamed Snark]

Thank you Danzar
I'm no computer expert but I'm happy to help out where needed

[Doctor]

No objections here. I wouldn't know web code from a hole in the ground but I'm happy to write stuff (I can do that) and help out where I can (and when I'm wanted!).

I'm scared by the revelation that RWO is a secret nest of COBOL gurus.

Thanks to Des and Scott (and Dan), I run a couple of less dynamic sites and they can be a PITA, I don't want to think about how much time you have put in to RWO.

DATA DIVISION.

[Danzar]

What's COBOL?

[ugg]

Crappy, Obscure, Boring, Old Language

Apologies to all your COBOLers out there.

[Meg]

I too wish to heap thanks and praise on Scott who has worked marvels on this site in my view. I for one am delighted if Dan takes over, particularly if he brings that cute black kitten with him!
