administrator Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 First off, a big thank you to Gene for helping me deal with new user registrations. I have tried enabling "normal" user registrations a couple times now and the spammers are relentless... sometimes the same day they start answering the challenge/response and blasting away at our forums again. Gene has been reviewing emails from new users asking for forum access for months now, so you have Gene to thank for the lack of spam here.I'm sure everyone has noticed the Library hasn't been updated in quite a while. I really don't have time to do much other than keep the website up and running these days. I've been tossing around the ideas of either getting The Classic Speaker Pages into someone else's hands who has more time than I do, or providing administrative access to someone to help me make updates. So, on that note...Is there anyone out there comfortable with HTML (and ideally the OS X Sandvox web development tool) willing to take on Library updates?Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genek Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Unfortunately, I don't have a Mac. If we had a web-based CM tool that worked like the forum admin CP I could probably do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan on eventually getting this done, but it's on hold for the moment because of the cost involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My secondary system is a MAC and it's not very "versatile". At this point, it sounds like it's time to move over to a Windows PC system. I'm hearing from many "fronts" that Windows 7 is quite safe to use unlike Vista. My personal home experience with 7 is that many things are easier to use than XP ever was.
