none of those sites behave the way evolt does, by adding the session ID to
all links if cookies are off.
this is going to have a negative effect on SE rankings.
since we attract new members mostly through search engines,
i think this is pretty critical.

this is unacceptable.
a member has asked for a report, finance should provide the report.
if we can afford to wait a month and resolve some things,
we ought to vote on it. but we don't know that without
knowing what we have in the kitty.

no -- we voted on shall we relaunch, which we agreed to.
i'm calling for a vote on "shall we relaunch *this*", which is
an entirely different vote.

several people have brought up issues they see as critical,
these issues were/are: (please feel free to add)
- the design
- the session urls, and their impact on SEO
- frontend features from the old site that aren't on the new one
am i missing any?
does anyone else care, or am i just a whiner?
