Hello all,
yes, last post has been from my side. I have the issue that I am involved in to many things and I have currently a hard time to do one thing right. I must sadly descope and priorize. So I wanted to leave the main task to someone else. At the same time I know that removal of the CMS is on Gregs whishlist, and before we deal with deadlines I think I try to put as much efforts in this project to get other volunteering and support them in their decisions and empower them. So I am basically fine and in agreement with Daves plan. I hope it will receive a broader support. What should be the git repo name? OOstaticWebsite? I have one more question. Jörg has mentioned that a lot of outside links point to the current web pages. What do we do with this? Do we make an announcement that this will happen and maybe give people some sort of hint to update their link lists?
