Hi,<br>
<br>
I'm moving this over to the EG Oversight Board list, as my suspicion is that discussion of the conference website, particularly the longer-term proposals, may not be of particular interest to the SFC.<br>

</div>And to be clear, here's my +1.<br>

<br>
</div>I agree that archiving the conference websites is a worthy goal.<br>

<br>
</div>Agreed. An option for the future might be offering website host to the conference committees as a function of the website committee.<br>

<br>
</div>If we had to choose one or the other, archiving (and organizing!) the presentations matters more to me than the conference websites.<br>
