Looks like Phil has set up the front door, well done! I was thinking of adding a simple three or four sentence greeting on that page from myself and the assistant managers. Unless any of you object, I'm planning on putting in your full names. As for the two doctors in the house, I think proper etiqu...

I think we should put you in charge of that project, Michael, I'll do whatever you recommend. You can work with Phil, Tom, Billo, whomever you think can help. Jim

Sounds good Mike.

Ok thanks Phil.

I would like to delete the "It doesnt feel like BWE" and "Quick reply" threads before we go public, but I'm not sure how to do that. I can see a function that allows me to delete my own posts, but not whole threads. I'm thinking we can leave the rest of the existing discussions h...

Yes Phil please put the quick reply feature in and the logo is fine. Can we create a very basic front door page with just the logo and a simple one sentence welcome (for now) that says something like: "Welcome to Bordeaux Wine Enthusiasts!" or some such thing, along with a link to the Boar...

I agree Scott. Besides the people inquiring on the MSN site, I've been getting emails from people who can't log in, people like Comte and others.

How do we create a front door page?

Is there a minimum attendance required by Charlie Palmer David?
Right now I count 19 tentatively attending....

What do we need to get at least a rudimentary "front door" page up?
And how do we remove the password protection?

It seems to me if we can resolve those first two points in Mike's four points, the last two can be addressed after we go public.

Is the "front door" page the place where we can put links to cellartracker, the online resources/retailers, etc.?

Sounds like we have a little more work to do, I'm wondering if I can give some sense of a time frame to the rest of the BWE population.

I had this again last night. It is a superb representation of Burgundy. It is just so pure and smooth, with just enough structure to give it some backbone and ageworthiness. The cherry sensations on the nose and palate are just so lovely. A perfectly balanced effort, I actually have enjoyed this a n...

Okay, in this thread, let's discuss what remains to be done to get this show on the road.

What is left to do?

Yes, I think borders might resolve the issue. Also, how do we tell when a message thread has a new message(s) in it without going into the thread itself? On MSN the thread appears bolder when a new message has been posted, as well as, obviously, being brought to the top. Also, is there any way to ma...

I agree. The current BWE site has 50 per page I think.

Good questions, DavidG.

Sounds good to me.

Yeah baby!

Looks good, Phil, I'm gonna take a closer look after lunch.
