I'm sure it does 
The reason I ask is that I want to remain confident that you will continue to represent the community's best interests in the event that an alternative organisation is awarded the deal. I detected a change in tone in Z's earlier posting, and just wanted you to clarify this was still the case.

Ho yus. If nothing else, *not* doing that would be letting us all down. Not on my watch.

Yes it is. If someone else wins, we'll have to regroup, but I see a role for a user-group or some other form of community representation.

Icy - my apologies, we'll continue to represent the communities best interests *whatever* happens to h2g2, in whatever way we can.

That's the official roll, and this is a plea to make sure that everyone's on it.

I felt quite weepy reading it. 
Ottox, there's a list of folks that Amy got permission from who's stuff we didn't use in the end. I'll make sure you've got that too.

Ottox, can you (actually, I know you can--*will* you 
) add the "aka 'paper lady'" bit to my name?

I know you've posted in lots of place Z, but should there be a dedicated thread on the c2 page for this? I think the other calls for names might get lost in backlogs whereas a thread with an obvious title will remain relatively visible over time.

That A page looks really good in alabaster btw. Nice colours, nice simply aesthetic.

By "A" page, do you mean the list of names that Ottox put together?

Doesn't look quite as good in B. I just realised that that list was made in Jan! And has been updated since. Do we need another list then?
