Dear All,

Strangly, I hit the old HBBR website by mistake from my favourites only the other day and it occurred to me that it was in a pretty moribund state (e.g. telling people that details of the 2011 rallies would soon be posted!).  To my mind, we need to think about the content on this site and the processes for creating and maintaining that content.  If no-one has the inclination to maintain it, the best thing we can probably do is to bin it!

Incidentally, I met a chap at Seafair Haven who said he had been looking to find out is there was a Thames raid this year but he only knew about the old HBBR site (that did not help him at all) and was not aware of this forum where all the "organisation" was actually being done.

I know we have all got used to using it but, when you think about it, using "HBBR" as the main handle for all our activities is pretty obscure and much of our online discussion has little to do with rallies at all.  Perhaps the time really has come for us to refocus our terminology onto the one thing that really brings us together - "home built boats"?  

Best regards,

David.
