[UK-CONTEST] RSGB Websites (changed subject line)

Some back-stage chatter has resulted in me discovering that BERU is a 60
year old CW contest that is referred to by two different names. Since I've
only been around in this hobby as an SSB op 6 years, I have yet to cotton
on.

Can I ask a serious question though. Honestly - why do we have all these
daft websites and various domain names kicking about when RSGB.org.uk seems
pretty good to me..? The ARRL somehow manage to do this with a much larger
problem that we have. There must be enough technical know-how knocking
around the RSGB to get a decent Content Management System running with
relevant log-ins and security for the relevant parties so that each
flag-waver can have their own sub-site?

Food for thought.

Finally, I take this opportunity of declaring that I hereby take away my
generalist views of dribbling G3s (which was only a joke anyway) since many
of them have emailed me with genuinely funny quips about the old gits
running our various hobby establishments.

Keep it up :)
