Thank you.  I think that was needed.

Understood.  Cumbersome though this might be, it will not block a
release.  I can probably edit HTML faster than I could use the old
Joomla:-).

We do.  As I have said earlier I have no strong preference regarding the
software involved, but I would propose some criteria, which are mainly
motivated by the very low numbers of volunteers:

- Ease of maintenance, especially security updates
- Ease of release process (look at the chapter in .../doc/developer.tex
  on what we do/did to make a release for comparison)
- Preference for something we can continue to host at sourceforge where
  freecol.org has long been

Cheers,
