Tom
I have no problem w/ receiving documents and putting them up. (This week
I'm unable to publish anything to the public web site as Harry is in Germany
right now).
And I'll be happy to post the availability of documents to the Usage Board
list. Should they be reviewed before being published to the public web
site?
However, I don't think I'm the one to track what documents are required and
when they are due, so I would prefer that task be w/ you or someone else.
Beth

Dear Beth, dear all,
Just to clarify the work-flow: I would prefer that everyone send their
texts directly to Beth (as Stuart has done) and, when these have been
posted to the Web page, to announce them to the dc-usage list. (Or
perhaps could Beth perhaps routinely make the announcement whenever she
has posted such a document?)
Otherwise, the burden falls on me to manage the documents, and I would
still need to go through Beth to put them onto the Web page.
Beth, what would be most efficient from your point of view?
Tom
