Actually, it turned out that no, at some  point we had 10+ people on the web
team list and only Heather was really doing anything.
The other  problem is  that last time  I asked for  volunteers, a  couple of
ladies (twins?) offered help, but someone who had worked with them walked up
to me later  and told me in  private that they had created  much problems in
other groups  and that they  didn't play well with  others at all,  the last
thing we need, so if I make  another call, they'll probably offer their help
again and wonder why we're not taking it...

Since you've  just become operational,  I'd rather see  how it goes  now and
make another call if you guys tell me you could use more help.

Great.

Yep, please do.

I don't know too much about the whole infrastructure, which is why I try to
avoid touching the whole thing unless I have too (or unless I get directions
from Heather), but she'll be able to help you.

Yep, actually just answering the Emails saying that you're looking at all
this would already be a good thing.

I think it's in /home/httpd/htdocs or something like that.
 
Good luck, and TIA
