depending on the ISP..i think going with php will probably serve as a suitable and managable foundation for the site. Unless we are going to get crazy...things like perl and java are probably a little too high powered.
I'd like to see what your friend d2d has...in the least we can use it as a springboard for ideas.

Glenn,
I'm be 99% sure that what he has designed would not involve any of those funky languages, but plain HTML and graphics. Shouldn't be a problem.
If he is interested in sharing with us, perhaps he could ZIP up the site and send it to me, and I'll post it out there where the "Web committee" view and comment.

What I like is the calendar, story board (we can use this section for upcomming events and new news about the club) and more...
take a look... and I hope d2d jumps in here soon.
But I have to leave now... so I'll be back here tomorrow............

Hey all, it's using geeklog, which is a blogger on crack essentially. events, static pages, multi-user stuff, news etc. No real forums, but that's fine for us since we use this.
only catch is what it requires to run.
php, and mysql.
I have this running on a solaris box, could easily run on a linux box, and probably an NT box too (I think php and mysql work under NT...would probably want apache as a webserver).
it's fairly easy to use/post/update etc. would need to customize it and such, but since it's all php customizing is pretty easy to do.
Share your thoughts! It's far from perfect, but I think it could be made perfect...and btw..this is just a sample site...so no flaming on the colors etc please
Edit: Being that it uses a database backend, and scripting front end, dynamic content is incredibly easy...so is customization. If you've ever worked with any scripting language, you'd find php to be fairly straight-forward in comparison (btw, s2ki appears to be written in php). As mentioned, it's not a forum, it's a news portal by design.

There are alternatives to hosting....but that's not something I want to discuss in public like this. Would rather take hosting talk to PM's, or any less-public means.
I'm dahn2dusq on aim if anyone's using that.
