But isn't having this site (which links to the WWP site) really a
frontend for the WWP? Wouldn't it be better to drive site visitors
*directly* to the WWP site vs. using the VRWay site as a frontend for
the WWP? Wouldn't using the VRWay site as a frontend for the WWP have a
tendency to pull traffic away from the WWP site? How would you feel if
they wanted to do the same frontend idea with the content on your (most
excellent!) site?
IMHO it seems like we'd be giving away the store if we allow this to happen.
