[MLA] MLA web site

[Kevin Gross]

Thanks for your efforts Robin. The site looks great.

Our former site did not have an About Us page. We simply used the home page
for this information. Unless someone wants to volunteer some content for
both pages, I suggest we delete About Us and put all that on the home page.

The About Us information is different than we had on our former home page (
https://web.archive.org/web/20170201231348/http://www.music-loudness.com/).
If others are agreeable, I can combine the two into new updated content for
the home page.

I'm getting a, "Failed to fetch" error opening the whitepaper. In addition
to onsite reader, we should also have a link for simple PDF download.

The Links page is empty. We had a bunch of content here on the original
site (

)

I agree that a single login is needed for doing content updates. It is
probably best to designate one of us as webmaster.

I would be happy to receive Contact page submissions through my email
address and forward non-spam submissions to the MLA reflector. I don't
think we need mla at gmail.com, just change the email address used behind the
scenes by the website as necessary.
