Things are always changing right now. There will be a meeting at Pennsic
on Monday the 14th at 4:30pm in the Barn for those people who can be
there. This meeting will be ran by the Society Electronic Publications
Manager who is the authority on what can and can't be done with official
SCA webpages. I definately plan on being there.

Blech! I don't even want to think about that!

I think it's something that we *should* do. However, I do not think it
is something we *need* to do. Of course I thought we *should* do it 4
years ago when there when it was done and issues were raised by many
people. (The same issues that the Society as a whole is just now dealing
with.)

As do I.

You have that now. There is an unofficial calendar off the webpage. If
your group has a webpage with the event on it, let the Kingdom VScribe
know and he will link it in. This does wonders for the ability of others
to find your events. I would assume that anything that would come out
of the BlackStar would be exactly what is printed in the paper version.

Btw, Gala may not be on this list, so please be very careful about your
suggestions and accusations. I'm not able to keep up with things since
I'm in the West Kingdom right now and will be heading to Pennsic on
Friday.

Ciao,
