AVEN Digest - 13th October 2008

Firstly, the keen-eyed among you might have noticed that I am not Hallu. Hallu has passed the baton of the Digest on to me, and I'd just like to thank her on behalf of AVEN for all her hard work. :)

AVENues

First of all, thanks for taking this over, Cicero! You are braver than I am. *joins Hallu with the clapping*

And, second of all, forgive my ignorance, but who is on the AVENues Team, these days? Big, big kudos to all of you! It is looking fantastic!

And, third of all *coughs* someone's gettin' married. *coughs* (We might have something that would need to go in the next digest on this subject, by the way. I will PM you with the details!)

My fantastic beta-readers are Birdnerd, Carsonspire, Cicero, and T_S; they go over all the content and formatting to make sure it's as close to perfect as possible. And everyone whose name is listed in the issue contributed content. The rest is me. On behalf of everybody, thanks for the compliment! :D

Sorry, I can't believe I missed that out! I'll make sure I include it this week! Congratulations again! :)
