• Amy Choitz:  Lane Patterson, EP/Web Developer demo-done on 5/26/16

• Majority response from the website committee confirming they are comfortable going       with Lane as our developer.  Majority response from board members confirming Lane as   developer.   
• Would like to develop a contract for support, cost, time, etc.
• I asked Lane about the transition time:  The transition time is fairly quick. Once the domain name is transferred to my registrar (can take up to 72hrs) the website will be live. However, to make it quicker we can point the DNS servers to mine which will point users to the new website even before the domain name is transferred. All I would need to do is speak with your current hosting service to get things rolling.

(Continued)   In the meantime, I think your board should go onto the current website and provide me with the content you would like to be visible on the new website and then also the content that only members can access. I am also waiting to hear back on how Michigan’s chapter coordinates their website with AACVPR’s national website. I do think it will be difficult to combine the hosting application I use with membersuite so users can use one login. I can however, probably set it up so users can login with Facebook/Google/etc so that they don’t need to create a new username and password but rather have the option to use one they already use with another service.    Board decision:  Conference handouts should be available to conference attendee only.  Otherwise, all other document open for members.
