Maureen,
Thanks for the update! I do like the idea of having the CTGenWeb in the URL. I'm
still
chipping away at New London County, which really was due a complete reorganization and
major housecleaning. I think I'll be finished in the next week, so I'll check in
with you
then about the domain and subdirectories.
I've still got the option of going with
, which is the domain I started
when
I adopted Gwinnett County GAGenWeb in 2004 (to which I've since moved my SC counties).
I'm already paying for the space. However, like Susan, I've got lots of projects
and
files needing space, and they don't all have to be in one place.
I'll keep you all posted.

Hello,
I'm writing to announce that after consulting with SC George Waller, the
CTGenWeb Project has moved to its OWN domain:
http://www.ctgenweb.org.
George has asked me to keep the Rootsweb site up for a month, to smooth the
transition and allow the CCs and TCs time to change their
links. Tomorrow, I will place a note on the Rootsweb site home page with
appropriate links to the new site.
This year's subscription/registration has been anonymously donated.
The site is on
www.powweb.com, if anyone wants to see what they offer in
terms of added bells and whistles.
They have a bulletin board available, but I'm not sure if it can be installed
for each county, or if it can be just one per site?
If anyone knows for sure, please let me know.
There is plenty of space (1500 GB of space) for other CCs and TCs, as a
sub-directory (
ctgenweb.org/county/town, for example).
If any CC or TC wants to move off Rootsweb (or from elsewhere) to
CTGenWeb.org, please let me know.
Subdirectories can be password-protected for anyone wanting their own space
on the site through an FTP upload.
If anyone has more experience with this process than I, I welcome your help!
The Tech guy at powweb explained it to me and it sounds pretty simple--but so
far, I've only password-protected
folders/directories on another site I manage, not ftp ties to specific
directories.
Best wishes,
