Eric, perhaps you could give us a brief synopsis on the aims and
objectives of the WBT of BC i.e. what its prime emphasis will be, etc.
It would be interesting to me, and perhaps other Tweets, to know how a
new "birdy" organization will fit in.

Proper attribution of author is always appreciated. There have been
unethical grabbings of published and unpublished material which have
caused furores in the past. Most of these confrontations could have
been avoided with either a note to the author requesting the use of
the information and/or proper attribution. Seeing as how this is an
open internet discussion forum, I don't think we could stop you from
publishing anything on here anyway. But I have seen assumption of
prior consent lead to some pretty heated conversations!
