That is exactly right, Joe.  As a matter of fact, when Ward convinced
George Peace to turn it over to him (and Ward whined about that until
George did turn it over to him, I have the e-mails from George somewhere
here), Ward told the other ZCs at the time that he'd be sharing the
password with the other ZCs.  He never did that. It is time for him to turn
it over to Malcolm.

What I really find bothersome about the way Ward handles the site is that
he has Marco d'Itri taking care of actually updating the site.. not that
Marco does a bad job, but you can't update your Zone pages yourself.  You
have to e-mail or netmail any changes to Marco and he puts them up.  Marco
won't run any CGI applications either because he feels it's too
"insecure" (geez.. if your system is that insecure why run it??).
 The Zone 1 pages use a CGI script for the new node application and it's a
waste over on fidonet.org

Take care,
Janis
