The Education Forum's Future

[James R Gordon]

Fellow members have been aware that there has been the possibility that the Education Forum – and by implication the JFK Assassination Debate forum - might disappear for good. Like many fellow members, a group of us were dismayed by such a thought. The Education Forum, in its entirety, has a rich history and has been a positive resource in the lives of all of us. The inspiration and work that went into building this forum is something we felt obliged see continued.

On Monday the ownership of the entire forum was transferred to our group. We have the necessary funds to guarantee it’s continued existence for the foreseeable future. The history, development and inspiration that led to this forum being created is something that merits being permanently secured.

Taking the forum forward and guaranteeing it such a permanent future will require further thinking in the coming weeks.

However, for now, we would like to state that the Education Forum – and this particular forum – is presently secure and sound.

James:

This is extremely good news indeed.

For the sake of transparency, could you provide forum members with the names of those who comprise your group that has valiantly stepped forward and saved this valuable resource?

Many thanks in this regard.

It is a fair request Douglas, but we still need - to use that overused phrase - to "get our ducks in a row"

This is a massive undertaking and one that we need to think through and consider very carefully.

I am aware I am visible having made the announcement, but to allow the group time space to work out how to develop this site: to make it even better that it is now and to preserve the investment that has been made in the site - for the moment the group's identity is being reserved.

James.

[Mark Haley]

Excellent news. Very pleased to hear the site will continue.

[Gary Murr]

James:

[Bill Simpich]

Great news that the forum will continue. Many thanks for helping us move forward and preserving the history on the internet. Looking forward to the discussion on next steps.
