-Gila Region Community News, Calendar, Forum-

I am seeking community input on where to take Gila Community from here. Should it change? Should it stay the same? What are the values that people see? For example, a possible change in hosting might be in the works. Thanks Moses

Moses, I've learned so much from the Gila Net over the years. I'm very sorry that I never met your dad. I'm hoping it can continue in whatever way you choose. It would be a shame to lose such a valuable resource, but I know it must take a lot of your time. What are your thoughts?

really glad to see your questions, Moses. What do you need to keep it going?

The last few days of NO action within this forum was a reminder of how valuable it really is for us to stay connected as a community and share news and views. It would be very sad for it to die; I'm sure that John would hate to see that happen, as he spent so many years nurturing it.

Obviously it will never be the same without Crow's hand and probing mind. But someone needs to step forward to steward it into the next decade. I know that the actual server was housed at Crow's house, and believe that Moses had a hand in originally setting it up, so he understands the geeky reality. If Moses is willing and interested in taking his father's role with the forum, that sounds like the best option to me. But if this would be a burden for him, we should find someone else who would enjoy the task.

I find this useful, but perhaps there's a better platform for it.

I remember when John Fridinger ran the forum. It was great. (Not that it hasn't been great since.) I wish he'd come back. Anyway, I hope it continues in pretty much the same way.
