Reliability in our COTM guru'* has been spotty at best. And each time it falls into the gutter, I've had to pick it up. I can no longer do that.

Based on the fact that it takes quite some time to notice it'* missing, I find it hard to believe there'* that much interest in it.

Unless someone ULTRA reliable steps forward with the right skills, abilities, energy, and server space (it will not be hosted on our site server), it'* probably not going to happen unless you start prodding the person currently responsible for it.

You must have HTML skills, image modifying skills, hosting, have Hans' permission, take on hosting the entire archive to date from Hans (it'* been passed on countless times) and other technicalities.

It'* not a pushover job.

You obviously didn't fully read my post above. I didn't say nominations or volunteers were being called for.

The responsibility for COTM is alreay assigned. You go to him.
