Motion 2011-C - Upgrade to CFC Discussion Forums- for discussion
Moved: Chris Mallon; Seconded : Egis Zeromskis
That the CFC upgrade its forum software at a cost of $50 USD.
Background: The CFC forum software is quite old and requires a lot of effort to keep spam-free, which new software does by itself. Also, new software will allow for new features such as FEN diagrams built in and possibly a PGN games viewer (not yet confirmed).
Bob A : This thread is for discussion only. A separate voting thread will be posted tonight at 9:00 PM EDT, when all motions for vote will be posted.
I note that Fred McKim has offered the opinion under the main thread that the Chair, Bob G, might rule this motion out of order:
Fred M: " The point is why not wait and see. If a seamless forum / discussion board is available with the web site, that might be the route we want to go.
I would think Bob, might rule this motion out of order, for the time being. "
I will go ahead with the motion for voting unless I hear otherwise from Bob G.
