Well, I did it.  Sold out, kind of.  As of December 7, I will no longer be a 
self-employed consultant, as I've been for the past eight years.  Instead, 
I will be the new Webmaster at the Bank of Canada, a federal agency 
roughly comparable to the US Treasury Department.

It was a tough decision in some ways.  There are a lot of aspects to self-
employment that I value and enjoy.  But I also value financial stability, 
which self-employment has never entirely afforded me.  And with my new 
extended family I also increasingly crave such arcane notions as "leisure 
time" (and paid vacations and medical benefits and pension plans and so 
on.)

Anyway... my first priority will be a complete redesign of the Bank's 
current site, a project I'm really looking forward to.  I'll also have some 
ancillary editorial responsibilities such as speechwriting, which I haven't 
done for quite a few years.  I'm looking forward to an occasional break 
from agonizing over cross-platform Web design anomalies, truthfully :)

So... I'll still be active on WC, though likely a little less so than in the 
past.  Also, I'll let you know in a couple of months when my new version of 
the Bank's site is in place.
