SIGs
|
SIG coordinators and editors rarely get to see each others newsletters to see what other SIGs offer and how they do it. The web helps slightly, so that content may be seen, but for those putting out physical newsletters there is not much to go on.
This is an informal survey of various SIGs, getting information on the types of newsletters they put out, content, and so forth. This should be interesting to both existing SIG coordinators and also to people interested in starting a SIG.
