Subject: [pl-seminar] PL Seminar Organizer Needed
Since I am leaving the department, the PL seminar needs a new organizer for the coming year.

Here are the duties of the organizer:
* Be the administrator of the pl-seminar mailing list, a task requiring very little effort.

* Organize and announce seminar talks. Minimally, this means sending out talk announcements and occasionally reserving rooms.

* Maintain the PL area web site at < http://www.cs.wisc.edu/areas/pl/ >. Minimally, this means keeping the seminar, students, and alumni pages up-to-date. (The reading group page is currently maintained separately by Aditya.) A more enthusiastic maintainer may want to give the whole PL site a general overhaul, as it is beginning to look dated.

There's no particular reason why all these tasks need rest upon one person. If you want to design a great new web site for us, but don't want to handle room reservations, that would still be helpful. But I do need volunteers for all the tasks described above by the end of the month.

If you are willing to help out, come talk to me in CS 6355. Volunteers will be given chocolate covered coffee beans.
