permanently remember Bill as the founder and visionary who made it possible.


Can you imagine a better permanent, living memorial to Bill than for us to find a way to keep contesting.com rolling on into the future? I have begun working inside PVRC to build a consensus in support of this undertaking, and hope that the other contest clubs will do the same. If this builds the momentum I hope it will, then at the right moment (soon!) we can engage with the remaining members of the contesting.com team to figure out how to make it happen.
