There never seemed to be a great interest in the site, so after about 9
months of inactivity, it was taken down. If there really is interest in
reviving the website, I don't mind setting up a simple homepage and
forums and hosting it on some web space I already have
Success in a website depends greatly on the availability and
willingness of someone to build and maintain it. It's great for Josh
to volunteer, but he'll for sure need help of all of us to supply
content.
As for the hosting: Josh, did you and the others explore having the
PWA site as a part of the greater Gaylord site? At this moment, the
"Student Groups" section offers links to the PRSSA and the Ad Club
websites -- both of which are hosted on Buddy's servers. And there's
an old and sadly dead link to Vicky Woodward's turn-of-the-century "PWA
Newsletter." I don't think there's any reason to go spend money on a
domain name registration and hosting fees, if all we need is right here
at home. Buddy could probably even help get an "alias" URL that
would help members get to the site more easily than going the the JMC
front door.
Something to think about.
