Re: TAG

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

Hi Dorothy (& co)

With all the ruffling going on with one dialog (don't ask), I completely 
forgot to point out to you guys that I'm making progress on another front.

I received a bunch of e-mails from members in the last couple weeks, much 
like Dorothy's.... "where's my TAG?" "I sent my check months ago!" etc.

Jack wants out.  He's been very very busy or something; it sounded 
serious.  He's had a stack of membership stuff that hasn't been dealt 
with for a bit.  I'm not completely sure, but he has said he's getting to 
it now.

I am taking the first step towards a transition in membership duties.  I 
have set up an online membership database that is accessed via a 
password-protected website.  We can then find someone to take over or 
share membership duties while at the same time maintaining a certain 
control over the database ourselves.  It can also transition from person 
to person without a lot of fanfare.  As I pointed out to Jack, he can even 
update entries for stragglers once someone else has taken over the primary 
job.  David could process renewals directly when receiving PayPal 
payments (if he wants).  Folks like me can answer people's e-mail asking 
if their address is correct or if they were mailed the latest TAG.

Jack is OK with this plan, and is assisting me in making sure the new
database is sufficient for our needs.  Yesterday I was able to succesfully
integrate an older version of Jack's excel spreadsheet into the database,
and I am hoping to have the "real"  one transitioned sooner.

What I need from the rest of you guys is help on finding a victim to run 
this.  Alternatively, I will run it if we can find a new victim to be 
president.
