As much of an improvement as this new site is, it still falls well short of what it could be. After the new wears off I think you'll find that all we've gained in this version is a much needed document search.
Long story short you were completely wrong when you predicted, "My money is on Herndon stringing the current MEC along until the end of the term, and then starting from "scratch" with the new guys." Now you move the goal posts to save face, but the web site will continue to improve as content is updated and added. Anyone who knows IT knows that if you waited to launch a replacement web site until every underlying system and all its content was updated completely that you would never launch. Letting perfect be the enemy of the improved is a sure fire recipe for paralysis which you previously criticized.
I bet you have never done any significant union work as you obviously don't have a clue about how a predominantly volunteer organization like ALPA functions. This isn't the Air Force where leaders issue orders that are reinforced and obeyed according to the UCMJ.
That said since your standards are so high and you apparently think it so easy, put up or as you previously promised shut up. Teddy Roosevelt was right and you certainly should jump in the arena and show us all how its done.
