Greetings Bugle readers! The month of August saw quite a few articles promoted to featured or A-Class, along with the final shuttering of the Review department, with its functions devolved to the Announcements template and a newly-created A-Class review page. The Logistics department is also in line to be closed with core functions devolved to other areas of the project.
For September, the annual coordinators election is taking place. Ten candidates have nominated themselves so far, with an encouraging seven having never held the role before. Any interested member is encouraged to apply, and all members are encouraged to vote starting next Wednesday (14 September). The election itself is a simple approval vote; the top fifteen applicants by numbers of support votes will be designated as coordinators for the XI tranche (September 2011 to September 2012).
A thanks goes to Cbrown1023, who has operated our newsletter delivery bot ( Brownbot) for the past several years. Due to an increasing real life workload, Cbrown has indicated that he cannot continue this. The Bugle has decided to move to EdwardsBot, but this means that members who do not want delivery will have to remove their name from this page We apologize for this inconvenience.
Last, in honor of the tenth anniversary of the September 11 attacks, this week's op-ed contains five project members' recollections of the day. Do take a look, and feel free to leave your own memories on the op-ed's talk page. Your editors, Cam ( Chat)( Prof) and Ed [talk] [majestic titan]
