Vlad has volunteered as has Paul to rewrite the rating system section.
What I'd particularly like is a new guide for rookie TDs including arranging a site, advertising, things you need to know in advance, how tournament reports are submitted in 2019 (which is quite different from 20 years ago) and so forth.
I'd also like to see us (1) be more accommodating to prospective donors and (2) be more aggressive in seeking major events bids which ties into the sports tourism thing but those are particularly matters of policy where I think we SHOULD be going rather than things done through the Handbook. No question some of this impacts the Website so Bob would also need to be involved.
I do think it's possible to do a PDF version but in my opinion the main level of the Handbook should be a master section with links covering the main points. (Governance, I'd like to see the regs for the online meetings a separate section, and so forth)
It's definitely doable and would help the Federation
