Thank you for your query regarding the OMVA domain and website.
At this time, ownership of said domain does reside with the OMVA.
Currently, there is no intention of creating or resurrecting the website per se.
There have been numerous attempts over the years to maintain our website which have inevitably ended up in failure. For a website to be informative and practical requires the dedication of an individual or individuals to maintain, create and update the data contained therein, otherwise it is dull, uninformative and out of date. Then there is the issue of domain ownership and associated costs.
It is always a struggle to collect information, photos and other interesting items to post. Just check with our newsletter Editor to understand how much work goes into producing 3 newsletters per year...

We still maintain CMP Magazine as our primary source of information, old skool style.
That said, we do owe it to our Members to live in a modern world as well of IM, Facebook and other online media forums.
I have created an OMVA Facebook group page which Members and public are encouraged to visit, join and post.
Alternately we have the MLU tab which I would like to see expanded and encourage Members to frequent and use as well.

-Chris
