when  the newest 'story' is over a year old, is it not time to either form a new staff and have new contributions, or eliminate it completely.  it looks bad for us as an organization to have that on our main page.  any thoughts on this?

Rawr has done a lot of work in reinventing the VET (and I helped just a little) so look forward to that in the future. I'm not exactly sure on any specific dates in terms of an announcement, but it is in the works

Yes, as a newbie I thought it was a tad odd and wondered about the activity on the site.  Other things re-assured me and I joined (and am glad of it!) but others may not look as hard as I and get put off.

If you need any new stories I have a few ideas.  Not sure I could commit to producing one every month though.

That said, the stories are flavourful and a good addition to the site. We should definitely keep the style.

Tell the little stories, if you will. What happens behind the scenes or in the backdrop.

When I joined the VET i intended to attempt to pump out stories on a regular basis since I carry around a few notebooks for that purpose when I'm on the move but pretty much right after I joined the thing fell apart, but I'm all up  for reviving it and will definitely work on getting some contributions in there as soon as it is "re-opened"

I know there is a discussion about reworking the main page going on... perhaps a general removal of real-world dates from things like VET articles might be generally helpful?

Main Page Content Revision 



...ermm....I think VET is mentioned in there as well as updating all the main page content, and its not all that old. So as Kad says in that thread, send him ideas and he'll look into it, if you think the VET needs to come down until it is reborn so to speak, I'd call that a suggestion.
