- So that our activities can be archived properly. our achievements can be recorded, and the website can be used for outreach activities.
- An FAQ section in the website can be maintained to address the newbie questions about FOSS.

-- related to this, it was observed, that the existing notice we have on FOSS, even though good, needs to be redone to a format where the message is quickly delivered.
