Subject: [WSFA] My announcements
Reply-To: WSFA members <WSFAlist at keithlynch.net>

Here are the announcements I made at the Third Friday meeting.  This
is mostly for Sam, to print in the Journal, but I might as well share
them with everyone else.

For the Publication Committee Report I said:

* We had all of the Lee Strong WSFA Journal issues online, and one of
  the Rachel Russell issues.  I hope to get four more Rachel Russell
  issues up before I leave for the Worldcon late on the night of Sunday
  the 24th.  [ Wade and I have added two more since the meeting, so now
  the past thirteen and a half years are online. ]

* I'm looking for the February, May, and June 1989 Issues.  Anyone who
  has copies should bring them to a meeting or contact me.

* The web page is up, as it's hosted in Boston, but the email list was
  down, as it's hosted in New York.  No email should be lost, only
  delayed.  [ It came up later that night. ]

During announcements, I said:

* Rebecca Prather had asked me to inform everyone that she had given
  up on asking for a ride to Torcon, and was now offering one.

* Early WSFA member David Halterman died.

* Three former WSFA members were in attendance.  I invited them to
  introduce themselves.  Tom Haughey, Jack Chalker, and Eva Whitley
  then did so.  Steve Chalker was also present, but was elsewhere
  in the house at the time.

Erica took minutes and attendance.  I probably should have offered to
take the papers to First Friday to give to Sam, since she seldom goes.

I'll mention that Cat announced that Elizabeth decided to host Fifth
Friday after all, for those who can't make it to Torcon.  I added it
to the web page (http://www.wsfa.org/calendar.htm), recycling the
January announcement.  Someone please tell me if anything about it
is wrong.  Thanks.

Dragoncon is also that weekend.  Is anyone going?  Someone should
ensure that Capclave and WFC fliers are there.
