Hi, 44Net!
Following much interest from our grants community, ARDC has created a
forum on groups.io: https://ardc.groups.io/g/main
Here, our grantees and others can discuss specific topics and connect
with one another: https://ardc.groups.io/g/community/topics
We invite you to take a peek and, if you like, join some of the
conversations.
What we like about groups.io: it integrates seamlessly into users' email
accounts, and there is a web interface feature as well. On the admin
side, it provides many tools to support collaboration like file sharing
that are simply not available in our current setup.
For these reasons, and support of fostering cross-pollination between
our grantees and the 44Net community, our team is considering moving the
44Net mailing list from mailman.ampr.org to groups.io. Some 44Net
subgroups – VPN and the Regional Coordinators – are already using it.
Before moving the entire mailing list, we want to get your feedback:
what do you think?
Please let us know by filling out this survey:
https://survey.alchemer.com/s3/7386497/Poll-44Net-Groups-io
And of course, feel free to share your thoughts and any questions in
this thread. John Hays K7VE is our resident groups.io expert, and he’s
standing by to answer any questions you may have.
Many thanks and 73,
Rosy + ARDC Staff

Hello 44Net!
I'm writing with some exciting news: we've updated ardc.net so that it
is responsive and accessibility friendly, with some clearer hierarchy as
well as imagery on the home page.
Please take a look when you have some time: https://www.ardc.net/
Though we've tested on many browsers and devices, as it goes with any
launch, you are likely to find a thing here or there that needs to be
addressed. Please let us know what you find, if anything.
Many thanks to Chris for his work helping us to wrangle this beast, and
also to Dan Romanchik KB6NU (whose last day was yesterday) for his work
implementing and tweaking the new theme, not to mention content updates.
Speaking of modernization, it's also worth noting that we're in alpha
testing for an updated Portal. Looking very forward to sharing more
about that as soon as we're able.
As always, reach out with any questions or thoughts.
Many thanks and 73,
Rosy
