All,
The TC seems newly invigorated and all parties
are back in place so I hardly feel like I can
bow out now and miss all the fun! I'm still on
the mailing list so will renew with OASIS before
11/1 and hope not to be discontinued. I'm happy
to continue as secretary and equally happy to
turn it over to someone else (or share the
wealth). Glad we will all still be working
together.
