Brian: I can put together a forum software in just a few days. The software itself would be free forever
Why re-invent the wheel. phpBB and MyBB to name two are free and open source supported by casts of thousands.
George: A cloud based solution gives us the piece of mind to forget about the platform and just worry about the content.
Cloud = "someone else's computer(s)". I hope you mean shared hosting with a major hosting provider and not something like AWS, Azure, GCP ...
Costs above: $70 for the first two years with a FOSS solution..
Gary tells me he can't do a dump of the vBulletin database, so there is no point in paying for vBulletin.a clean phpBB or myBB with a download link to gbThreads stored on the webserver would be the best way to go.
Any other volunteers for nomination to a committee?
Currently the following have indicated a willingness to serve on such a committee:
George Bleck, Albert Richheimer, Stuart McLachlan.
