Dear LINGUIST List subscribers,

I would humbly ask for your support to help run LINGUIST List. Please donate
at https://funddrive.linguistlist.org/donate 

The LINGUIST team works hard all year round to send you edited and timely
information on conferences, jobs and all things linguistic. Right before the
Fund Drive 2017 started back in March, I was up until 2 AM because of a
problem in automatically sending out LINGLITE (our daily summary) when we
switched the LINGUIST server from the old machine to a new and faster one.
LINGLITE was sent out twice, and the content was all messed up. It happened
for two days in a row even though the content was fine when we manually
triggered to send it out. We later found out that it was due to a known issue
in the server software we used. Incidents like this remind us that there are
humans behind the smooth and professional operation for LL.

Our student editors work diligently to make sure that subscribers receive high
quality content every day. Please help us so we can continue to provide this
valuable service to the linguistic community worldwide. Your donations, no
matter how small, matter for us to survive. Please help us run this operation!
Remember, this donation will benefit you also by allowing us to continue
serving you.

Here is the link to donate if you would like to do so:

Thank you,
Lwin Moe
