Colin,
I would be willing to be an administrator of a Race Management Forum under
which Sailwave was a topic. I agree that you need to have requests landing
in your inbox.
I personally liked the phpBB Sailwave Forum that you had running for a
while, I thought it a useful medium alongside the email.
Kind regards,
Huw Pearce

Subject: RE: [sailwave] Summary of Emails by Subject
Hi Ralph,
We've tried forums for Sailwave before and scrapped them - it's too hard
(for me) to keep track of what needs doing. I would prefer to
keep the SUG
as it is - email lands in inbox and it stays until its sorted out.
However, I don't mind hosting a "race management" (pick your own title)
set
of forums that just happens to have a section about using sailwave and
other
scoring software if you see what I mean. I would not use the same
software
that Mark used - it's not that good - for example it doesn't
track how far
you;ve read in a thread. I would use phpBB - see example here -
www.sailwave.com/bacca (not on-line yet) - i can give admin rights and
then
you can create all the categories and forums that you like. it would be
an
independent forum run by you.... what do you think. if you decided to
have
a dedicated sailwave forum that would be up to you.
