So I've been thinking up on some of the details and one thing is that we need to have an area for the text files and the html that is nor the same directory structure where CGI scripts are enabled. So I am thinking that there will be a 'wb' directory, and each section will get a subdirectory. Each section subfolder will have two files: index.html and sectioninfo.txt. The index.html is just so the web address can be in the form

www.whatever.com/Division1/wb/sectionmnemonic

The creation of the Division whiteboard will key off of the subdirectory list in the 'wb' directory. So to add a new section or delete one, just create/delete a folder.

So we're talking one script plus two files per section. Seven sections means 15 files for this system. not too bad, eh?
