I am currently having an e-mail conversation with Eamonn about this very subject. I have volunteered to take on this work in order to migrate with everything in tact. I
WISH I charged £1000 a day but unfortunately I don't!
The alternative is as Ian says, we make some upgrades/changes to the current software and push on. There are pro's and con's to each and Eamonn, Mark and I are having this debate and we'll come to some resolution in the short term.
Now that we all know this perhaps it might behoove all to leave it with the webteam for now and progress it after Eamonn makes his recommendation? I'm not suggesting that you all stop commenting on it, obviously we don't censor that sort of debate, but perhaps it might be more constructive to e-mail your thoughts to the webteam or even send it via u2u to the webteam?
