I can't say it better as Geoff did.

A modernization doesn't mean automatically an improvement.
The meteorite list is a time-honoured institution.
We love the old-fashion style
and why to change that, what has proven to be well-tried and to work?

A forum offers a lot of more knickknack. It's more laboriously to use,
unclear, the threads are more difficult to follow and it would cause much
more work for poor Art. The conversation there would be less formal, hence a
lot of not so interesting stuff to read ect. you had to fight through
hundreds of pictures, which might not interest you....

Please don't repaint the Sistine Chapel! It won't be prettier afterwards.

Best!
Martin
