Hi, :-) I took the liberty of adding an item to the agenda of the next SC meeting on Thursday, Jan 13, for you to discuss and decide about the future management of the website.
I have explained my ideas about the need for an editorial team, I am not trying to push any personal agenda. My only wish, after having pushed so hard to get it to its current state of existence, is that it should be properly managed and developed as a resource for the community. I trust in your intelligence and discretion to achieve that. ;-) David Nelson On Sun, Jan 9, 2011 at 09:26, David Nelson <comme...@traduction.biz> wrote: > Hi Charles, guys :-) > > I've read all your responses.
