What Changed?

On 1 July 2008, Rotary International will discontinue providing to clubs and districts the administrative software, RI-CAS and RI-DAS.  This software was available as a free download to clubs and districts from Rotary’s Web site and for purchase from the Rotary store. Initially, it was offered in order to provide Rotary clubs and districts with an effective administrative tool that would eventually integrate with RI's online business services, Member Access .

Why did RI make this change? 

There are many reasons we are making this change:

• Extremely small numbers of clubs and districts actually used the software
• Even fewer clubs and districts used an online version (which will no longer be available after 1 September 2008)
• Cost-effective use of your membership dues – the support and new development costs to the organization far outweigh the usage
• Clubs and districts that want to continue using the standalone administrative software can still do so
