Please take the time to read this post and respond. The future of the
Web page is in question.
I received a phone call over the weekend from a very prominent member of
the club. (He isn't really into computers and hasn't seen what we have
or what we are doing.) He said, "he'd received some phone calls about
the information that we have on the net and was a little concerned."
The thrust of the conversation was; were we going to GIVE too much
information away, and that we shouldn't put all the information on-line.
For example, the parts cross-ref. list. It was suggested that we only
put up a couple of lines to give an indication of what is available if
you join the club.
The support of the Web page WILL be a topic of discussion at the Eastern
National Meeting in Ohio in July. I'd like to have a little amunition
in support of our projects (both the Web page and the mailing list) when I
go there. What I'm wondering is:
1. How many of you have joined the club because of the Web page?
2. How many of you will let your membership laps because of the Web page?
3. What do you want to see on the Web page?
4. What do you want from the club - what would make you join?
It's my belief that the Web page and mailing list will bring members to
the club and if we can show that, we may get more support for the Web
page from the Club.
I'd appreciate a short post from each of you, as to whether you have
joined the club or are dropping the club because of the Web page.
Thanks for your time.
John
