I think we may need to actually print out hard copies of the handbook. Imagine if a disgruntled ex-staffer decided to sue Free Geek and we needed to point out our policy (at the time that person was hired) in court. Printing out a copy from time to time and filing it away somewhere might stand up in court better. Keeping all the policies in a single document would make that easier to do. For instance we could print out a copy whenever we hire someone, and get everyone on staff to initial that they agree to it. So I think it's better to leave it as is.
