Ha! I'll admit that AOL had crossed my mind but I couldn't work out why it would make sense here. Thank you for the disambiguating link! :-D Elisa On Tue, Dec 18, 2018 at 3:11 PM James Cummings < James.Cummings@newcastle.ac.uk> wrote:

Hi Elisa (etc.),

My apologies. AOL stands for America Online.

See http://catb.org/jargon/html/A/AOL-.html for an explanation of this reference. Apologies for being unintentionally cryptic.

Best wishes,

James

James's last message is mysterious because I don't know what <aol> means...Google tells me: AOL Acronym Definition AoL Army of Light (Starwars Galaxies guild) AOL Age of Legends (Wheel of Time Series) AOL Airborne Oceanographic LIDAR AOL Absent Over Leave (See *AWOL*)

which doesn't help much. Anyway, I, too, am glad Martina is willing to continue as chair. Elisa

Dear all,

I realized that I haven’t said anything about running for Chair again yet, but I wanted to keep the announcement and my candidature separate. I'd be happy to serve as Chair of the TEI Technical Council for another year. I learned a lot this year and have no doubt that there is yet more to learn.

Best wishes, Martina
