Website History & Status (first published c. March '14, revised c. April '17)
Up one levelONDNA website history is complicated and checkered. At the start and at my suggestion, an ONDNA member obtained a free website from Davis Community Network. He soon said it was not adequate and bought a website and domain name from GoDaddy. I asked the Board if I could set up an Old North Davis History website using the now abandoned DCN site and was voted permission to do so. It is the site at which you are now looking. The member set up the GoDaddy site as a "com," which seemed inappropriate and he then set up a new site ending in "org." He moved out of Old North, leaving the site without an administrator. I took it over on a short-term basis and built it up. But for whatever reason, this member, without discussion or notice, simply "took down" the site. There was no site for awhile. ONDNA acquired a third site as "net" and it was run by two other people in sequence before being abandoned and there was again no website for a considerable period. The fifth and most recent iteration involved buying a Wordpress site at the urging of two people who had recently arrived in the neighborhood and moved out not long after setting it up. This site is still on the web and has not been updated for some than two years
