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.
