What next?

A number of people have asked in various fora what happened over the weekend and what the future holds for theatre australia.

In the absence of an announcement here by the ITA committee, I'm not in a position to provide any assurance beyond the fact that the people that were responsible for redelegating this domain or web address to another site have no capacity to remove the website content as such. This much is protected.

I administered the domain for 13 years and this was recently taken over by the committee without notice. The committee have apparently instructed that the domain should point back at this website.

There have been several approaches to office bearers asking whether the committee would be prepared to consider transferring the domain to another incorporated association capable of more adequately representing the interests of the community around this site but a decision is understandably not expected until the committee meets.

I think there is every reason to believe that this plan will be endorsed by the committee and can foresee no other barrier to the transfer of the domain to a more appropriate not-for-profit body.

 

Cheers

Serious

Just trying to figure out how serious you are. In the consideration that you may be, the recent events that have prompted the posting of this thread "What Next?" I can quite categorically state had very little, if anything to do with your personal blogs, which have to date caused no issue with anyone.

The history of the original post stem back some years and relate to activities that extended beyond the scope of this web site. These matters led to an unfortunate situation where the entire site was taken off-line, a process that many questioned and argued against. Discussion are now in progress as to the future of this site.

On the other hand, if you were having a joke, then rest assured all is and will be well.
