What we need - and always have needed - is a team of people who are willing to take responsibility, coordinate their efforts and do the actual work.  How it is done emerges from the skills and time available in that team.  That means figuring out *first* what we want to have on the website, *next* how to get it (today, tomorrow, next month, next year) and *finally*, how to deliver and maintain it.

I'll snip the rest but I agree with all of Helen's comments.

While I may seem to be pushing the 'wiki', I practical terms - personally - I 
see no problem with the existing web site. I had hopped by now a few more people 
would be supporting the wiki, with a view to expanding it's influence, and also 
integrating more directly into the documentation project - yes and the tracker - 
but that has not happened.

If all that people want is a new theme for the existing site, then so be it. 
It's not something that interests me and I'll carry on working with my own 
developments in using Firebird to build dynamic web services.

Currently there IS a good web presence for Firebird, across a number of sites, 
but I am sure that a single focus is required, which can then direct people to 
sites which support them in their own languages ....
