A big thanks guys for all the work you've put in on the web page. I'm sure
it will be a thing of beauty.
Tight lines my friends,

> Several list members have recently inquired about the status of the
> WAFF web site, so here's an update on progress to date:
>
> 1. Site architecture, design, nav system, and html coding were
> completed in January and the site was posted online for further
> development.
>
> 2. Site URL has been selected and registered. A host was chosen for
> the site who could also run the mailing list software and store list
> archives at a rock-bottom cost.
>
> 3. Server-side programming is now being written that will add
> functionality to the site, allowing members to:
>
> a. Search through an archive of all list postings for the past 4
> years by submitter name, subject, or keyword.
>
> b. Submit an ad for flyfishing gear or services.
>
> c. Post a member profile including photo, preferred fishing types,
> location and contact information.
>
> d. Subscribe or unsubscribe to the list automatically.
>
> e. Post photos to a member's Gallery section.
>
> 4. Contributed feature stories and photos have been formatted and
> added to the Fishing Reports and Fly Patterns sections of the site.
> (Stories are still more than welcome - please contact me with ideas
> or suggestions by offline reply to this post.)
>
> 5. Editorial guidelines are being created and reviewed for future
> stories and photos.
>
> Without the contributions and guidance of volunteers like Danny
> McMillan, Leland Miawaki, Wes Neuenschwander, Keith O'Leary, Sean
> Ransom, and Mike Santangelo, the site would simply not have come
> together. We've all had to juggle the job of building the site along
> with work, family and fishing priorities.
>
> Like too many other equally worthwhile projects, this one has ended
> up taking far longer than we had hoped. We're excited about the new
> site and hope you'll agree that it will be well worth the wait. Once
> it's ready, we'll post an announcement and its address to the list.
