[LTER-commcom] announcing the new Andrews Forest website!

[Marty Downs]

Absolutely! Lina, do you think maybe you and Suzanne (maybe Michael) would
be willing to present together on a VTC? The audience would be people in a
mix of roles from different sites with an interest in communications.

Lots of sites are facing redesigns and would love to hear more about your
experience. Also, there's a committee starting up to re-examine the web
design guidelines, so being able to listen in on a broader conversation
about the redesign experience and the role the guidelines actually played
in that might be useful for the committee (copying Mary Martin who is
co-chairing that committee with me).

Mary -- I'll fill you in on the community of practice discussion separately.

Thanks, Marty
