Well, "leadership" may be a rather strong term.  ;-)

But continuity is assured.

The IBC mailing list is about to become a family-owned
enterprise.  The Hurd Family (Shelly et. al.) have agreed to take
over co-ownership and management of the list.  Reiner, of course,
will stay on as co-owner and Chief Financial Officer (Goodness
what an impressive title!  Hope the perks are equal to it.)

I'll stay on as an "in-the-background" co-owner/helper for as
long as Shelly says he needs me for advice, but will be doing
less of the day-to-day list management stuff as time goes on.

Some seem to have gotten the impression that once I step down I'm
leaving forever.  No such luck.  I'll be around.  I'll just feel
happier and easier in taking a few longer trips, and will have a
bit more time available for some other projects that have been
coming "real soon now" for several years.

So, welcome (or commiserations) to the "HurdFam."

And MANY thanks to the other folks who volunteered their service
to keep the list going.  I never doubted that we would have folks
willing to step up to bat.
