New software does not change the forums, they will still exist but what it can add is more interaction between organizers and the membership which should result in better attended events, more reasons to be a member of the DSC and less work for the webteam. That, IMO, is worth consideration but webteam need to make that decision , its their unpaid time and the decision should be their's within a budget agreed by MT or the AGM. I'm not certain it can all be done before the AGM but I'm sure Eamonn and the team will try and present something there if they can. |
THis sounds like an excellent idea and one that I would back as an RO. If we can attract more people to meets that has to be a good thing and surely something that the club needs to focus upon for this year - a very good investment of some of the club surplus.
