Greetings all, In addition to the recent CHAT standing committee changes, we have also changed CHAT listserv moderators. As of now, I will be taking over the role of list moderator from Dan Hicks. I have been an active member of CHAT since the first meeting in Bristol (2003), and I look forward to maintaining the listserv as a continuing source of momentum for CHAT’s interests over the next few years. These latest changes are solely administrative; the posting process and listserv format remains the same. As a source of rapid dissemination for discussions and announcements, the CHAT listserv provides immediate access to the international community of archaeologists concerned with contemporary and historical archaeological theory and practice. Presently the CHAT listserv includes over 300 regular subscribers and is expanding. Please continue to utilize this listserv as a means of communicating relevant local and international archaeological news, job and conference announcements, publications, awards, discussion topics, and questions. The CHAT standing committee welcomes unsubscribed colleagues to join the listserv at http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/contemp-hist-arch.html. Please contact me at [log in to unmask] with any questions or comments about the posting process. Additional enquiries may be addressed to members of the CHAT standing committee. A summary of the updated CHAT standing committee appears below.
