FW: [Web4lib] Editorial Board for an e-mail list?

I established the Web4Lib Advisory Board in 1999 [1] to assist me in making
the best possible decisions about list policy and the enforcement of that
policy. I'm happy to say that all three original members of the board still
serve in that capacity, and their advice and assistance has been absolutely
invaluable to me as list owner, and to the readers of this list as well,
whether you know it or not. This is probably as good a time as any to
publicly thank them for over eight continuous years of service to the
Web4Lib community. 

Thank you Thomas Dowling, Karen Schneider, and Bernie Sloan for your long
and effective service as a Web4Lib Advisory Board member. I hope you can
continue to serve in this capacity for many years to come.
Roy
