[arg_discuss] ARG SIG News Bulletin! Now With News!

[Thomas Maillioux]

Welcome Brooke, Wendy and John, and thanks for taking up with these tasks.
As a newly active poster, it's nice to know that the list has a lively,
evolving staff making sure it runs smoothly.

Regarding committees one might be able to help with, I'd like to offer to
help with the one dealing with IRC chats. I'm decently fluent in English,
spend unhealthy amounts of time on IRC in general, and have been moderating
channels here and there for a few years now. I'd be happy to give this a
shot with whoever feels like joining strengths on the task of managing
channel(s), keeping everyone up to speed on dates re. chats and topics and
keeping minutes of significant chats for all to enjoy/learn from !

Best,
T.

P.S. : Andrea, do make sure you don't get hit by a bus ! I'm looking forward
to many more years of interesting stories being told from you.
