1. Results of the ILFGA Executive Committee elections

 From George Aaron Broadwell:

The secretary/treasurer of ILFGA is pleased to announce that Rachel  
Nordlinger and Josef van Genabith have been elected to the ILFGA  
Executive Committee.  Congratulations to both of them, and thanks for  
their willingness to serve our association!

2. Students' work

There are several ways in which students can let the LFG community  
learn more about their work.


2.1 MA/PhD Publications in the LFG Bulletin

In each bulletin, details of student theses and dissertations of  
interest to the LFG community appear in the Publications section.  
Students and their supervisors are encouraged to email the Bulletin  
Maintainer (Louise.Mycock /at/ ling-phil.ox.ac.uk) with the relevant  
information.


2.2 Dissertation Session at the LFG Conference

At the annual LFG conference, students are given the chance to present  
recent PhD dissertations (or other student research dissertations).  
The dissertations must be completed by the time of the conference, and  
they should be made publicly accessible (e.g., on the World Wide Web).  
Each talk should provide an overview of the main original points of  
the dissertation.
Students should note that the main sessions of the conference are also  
open to student submissions.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. DRAFTS FOR COMMENTS

'Drafts for comments' offers bulletin readers the opportunity to  
submit information about drafts or projects on which they would like  
to receive comments from the community. This brings work in progress  
to the attention of the community and plays some of the role that  
previous incarnations of the archive played.

Please submit basic article/project information and a) a URL if the  
item is available online or else b) your contact email.
