[Tfug] tfug.org question

I see it as an addition.

Articles can be placed in directories with the index being dynamically created with a list of common articles.

Actually... I am not at all supprised by the fairly good pagerank for the TFUG 
site, though I believe that it is entirely based on the list archive 
(i.e. ... there really isn't any "good" content elsewere on the site). As has 
been said before (search back for the using Google thread), TFUG has always 
had a wide range of interests and people with knowledge of diverse things. 
This diversity has meant that many times a Google search for something 
obscure will end up leading right back to a discussion already hashed in the 
archive list.

Redesigning the TFUG website has been discussed before (many times infact), 
but to date has not gone much of anywhere as of yet as no one has stepped up 
to develop an outline and then actually write code. Adding member submitted 
articles, I believe, has been pretty much universally thought to be a "good 
idea" along with a site redesign of some sort, which has yet to be defined. 
What seems to be lacking is a structure, that is, a dungeon master to whip 
the rest of us back to work... Us meager assorted roustabouts, vagabonds, 
serfs, slaves, peons, and lackeys like the disorder that exists in our 
dungeon.
