LSU, Shreveport had been maintaining the LAPPA site for the past few years. After Satish's departure from LSU Shreveport, the site's maintenance has been ignored. LSU will takeover the responsibility of maintaining the web site.
We thank Satish for his efforts during his tenure as webmaster for LAPPA.
We are discussing various options for site maintenance. IT at Shreveport is making arrangements to handover data to LSU. When the new site is setup, we'll broadcast the info to all LAPPA members. We are making arrangements to obtain domain such as lappa.org (or lappa.us) to dissociate the site's website from any one member institution.
We will also be maintaining a list of all members at lappa-l@listserv.lsu.edu. This will prevent the need for users to maintain this list independently. This list will only be used for broadcast purposes. Other than the current lappa committee and webmaster, no one else should use this list.
In addition, we have started this blog http://lappa-talk.blogspot.com . This blog should help us maintain info about conversations and news pertinent to LAPPA community. Most of the information here will be informal. Please feel free to follow and participate in conversations.
Please contact Sai Pinnepalli (sai@lsu.edu) for additional information regarding the web site or the mailing list.
Thanks.
