Danyl, I completely agree. The case studies should all be there (they'll be filed in the 'news' section with a 'case studies' tag). Some of these old case studies made their way as squib profiles under one of the four main categories (the NZETC and Koordinates, for example).

I've written two more case studies, and have a few more interviews in the pipeline, but I've have been holding them back for the new site. I'll aim to post new case studies every fortnight or so.

Cheers,
Matt

This looks great! I'm sad to see the forums go, but you're right that
they never really took off. Is there a plan to archive the postings in
some form, or should I do that myself before the old site disappears?
I'm excited to hear about the new community engagement strategy
Richard refers to in his intro to the upgrade.

One question though, what has become of all the case studies that Jane
produced for the site? This seems to have disappeared down the rabbit
hole along with the user accounts. Also, will there be more case
studies researcher and written? I think it's really encouraging for
people to see others successfully testing the waters before they take
the plunge themselves.
