[ComCom] [Newsletter] List of Articles (Sept 17 Update)

[Colby E.Peterson]

Dear ComCom,

Hi all, as of this weekend, we have two new managing editors, so I am  
shifting some of the load from others to them. Many hands...

Rough/working drafts should be sent to me immediately so I can begin  
layout.

I require an article update from David Rolde and Bill Cunningham.

I require a list of final authors for completed pieces from Grace Ross.

We still need a photo editor.

UPCOMING DEADLINES:

* Managing Editors submit final or near-final versions to  
Colby										Sept 23
* Photo Editor(s) submit photos to Colby for layout												Sept 23
* Page Designer finishes rough draft															Sept 24
* Copy-Editors read newsletter and submit changes to Page Designer /  
Editor						Sept 26
* Page Designer finished near-final draft														Sept 30

NEXT STEPS:

1. Contact the suggested authors (David and Grace, we need contact  
info for those you named) and ask them if they want to write.
	If yes, add the article to the "author confirmed" column. The draft  
should be done by this coming Sunday.
	If no, first try to think of another author and then contact them
	If still no, move on, and put the article into the "maybe" column.
2. Based on the responses, post your final article list here by  
Wednesday (so you'll need to contact ppl by Wednesday, let me know if  
this is a problem)
3. Bug the author (nicely) to get the article written by Sunday.  
Contact them every other day to confirm movement on the article.
4. I will post an update based on the results we generate.

Please email or call me with ANY questions or concerns---- do not be  
silent about concerns, as they can be resolved if caught early, but  
silence will make them fester and we'll be screwed later on!!!
