Dear all now that some other pressing matters have passed, there's been some time to work on the AoIR website. It's still very much a work in progress, but we hope that the site is now somewhat more orderly and accessible. The transition from the old site to the new site has involved more work than expected (spread over more than a year!); our thanks to all those who so ably made that transition (especially Charlie, Jeremy, Radhika and Ulla). There are three important things now for you to do First - check out the revised menu system and front page. Second- if you are an AoIR member, you should login! If you have forgotten your password then you can get another by email. If you have forgotten your username then.... email ME and I will see what I can do (it might 3-4 weeks). Third - if you login, you can start to add content...have a look at the way the system works; try some things out (we can always delete mistakes). Focus in particular on either a) 'current content' - discussion posts etc or b) adding more permanent material.
