[CIMC-working] dada imc and our CIMC's new clothes

[Garth Liebhaber]

Apologies with not taking more direction with the server issues.  I read 
through the dadaimc invite and checked out the sites hosted on it and it 
looks appetizing.
    Ian and Emily did a lot of work in getting the new CIMC site up and i 
would personally like to extend my gratitude.  feel like it got ignored in 
the crunch of things.  garth

  I was wondering-would it help things to do something similar to nyc in 
having a separate page and server for large files like audio, photo and 
video?
