Hi, My understanding is that Ross has paid for the domain for just the last couple of years. This is the sort of the expense that should be paid out of the CLUG bank account, not by one of its members. I don't think it would be a big expense. If Ross doesn't want to be reimbursed, that is fine also.
Having looked at the http://www.clug.org.nz site, I don't think there is a need to keep it. If Chris wants to take over the domain and keep CLUG content on it, then I'm ok with that. I wouldn't like to see non-CLUG stuff go on it though.
