Let me try to illustrate what I think is going on. This is either gonna make
it easier to understand or just confuse everyone.  

The GGA pays Hostway each year for space (gga website), bandwidth, and
features (Board listserve).  
The space holds our website (o=the GGA web at www.gekkota.com):
Space paid by GGA:  SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
space currently used: OOOOOOOOO

Britney was making a new website:
NNNNNNN

But instead of putting it "unpublished" on the Hostway site, she put the
unpublished GGA website on her own Host company's space.  Naturally she pays
for that space for her own website and 'volunteered' (whether she was aware
of this or not) to put it on her site until it was done.  Her website, her
forum are all at her host site.

GGA's paid storage space at Hostway went utilized by Britney, for reasons I
don't know. 

(I don't have web building skills or web master skills, but I went to the
GGA Hostway account management and figured out how to do some simple stuff.
I changed the list serve to be used by the Board and I've updated some GGA
pages.)

The unpublished GGA site could have been stored at Hostway.  The unpublished
GGA site, once complete, would simply become "published" and the old GGA
site would be "stored".

Recently, I copied Brittney's entire unpublished GGA website on my hard
drive.  

I am not skilled enough to use her data and incorporate it in the old
website.  But, I can change text in the old website and some pictures.

How do we do a new GGA website?  A skilled web person and create a new GGA
site on their desktop.  The new site can be incorporated into the old one or
simply replace the old one.  Which will they choose to do?  Depends on their
skill levels.
