WAAC Newsletter

This is the third group of back issues now available on the WAAC
website.

They appear as PDF documents; you can read the entire issue or each
article as a separate pdf.  (You may observe that we have a new
policy of removing all contact information in the interests of
privacy.)  Hard copies are still available, and after we are caught
up we will return to the policy of waiting 6 months to post an issue
online, in deference to those who actually pay for the Newsletter.

In case you missed them in print, or just to remind you of the
terrific contributions we get, here is a list of the feature
articles from the newly posted issues.
