Thanks Lisa
There will be a new commission chairman appointed at the ICA conference, and
I believe that TacNews and the INTACT website will be continuing under new
editors so all is not lost.
Information will be posted as soon as it is available.
Best wishes
Ann

I have  just received my latest TacNews and got some sad news, Jonathan
Rowell will be giving up the chair at ICA commission on maps and graphics
for blind and partially sighted people, Ann Gardiner will be stepping down
as editor of TacNews and Simon Ungar stopping the INTACT website.
Through these activities they have educated us, and shared and spread sorely
needed information world wide.  Their knowledge and research has been
indispensable for the advancement of tactile graphics.
Thank you.
