Hello Paul,
Ian rarely gets a chance to check the BB, to be able to answer your message, because of fulltime work (in IT) and a young family, and has been spending any spare time uploading transcripts to the temporary website you saw. I doubt that he would have time to go to committee meetings for the same reason you gave for leaving the committee.
I'm sure his offers of help are still open - please see my message above. If he were to be given the same Admin access which you have to the FHS website, he would be able to "drop in" his work which has been ready to be transferred across for months.
Sue
