<BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">-------------- Forwarded Message: -------------- <BR>From: LMOORE2122@wi.rr.com <BR>To: announcements@sca.org <BR>Cc: directors@sca.org <BR>Subject: [Announcements] Appointment of new Webmaster <BR>Date: Mon, 28 Nov 2005 16:28:28 +0000 <BR><BR>MARLA LECIN APPOINTED SCA WEBMASTER <BR><BR>NOVEMBER 28, 2005: Scott Courtney, Chief Technical Officer of the <BR>Society for <BR>Creative Anachronism Inc., announces the appointment of Marla Lecin, <BR>known in <BR>the SCA as Mistress Jessa d'Avondale, to the position of Webmaster. In <BR>this <BR>role, Ms. Lecin will have primary responsibility and authority for <BR>publishing <BR>and maintaining content and for the visual design of the web site. The <BR>Webmaster <BR>is a newly-created volunteer position reporting to the Chief Technical <BR>Officer. <BR><BR>Formerly, the title of Webmaster was not formally defined, and was <BR>more-or-less <BR>fol
ded into the office of Chief Technical Officer, with Ms. Lecin <BR>serving <BR>informally as a deputy to the CTO. This appointment recognizes her <BR>contribution <BR>with a title appropriate to the work she is already doing, and indeed <BR>has done <BR>for several years under two different CTOs. <BR><BR>In addition to recognizing and formalizing Ms. Lecin's role, the <BR>appointment of <BR>Webmaster as a separate office allows the Chief Technical Officer to <BR>focus more <BR>time on the technical infrastructure of the SCA's servers and on <BR>strategic <BR>information technology policies and initiatives. <BR><BR>The role of Webmaster is entirely separate from the Society Web <BR>Minister, an <BR>officer who serves as a deputy to the Society Chronicler. The Society <BR>Web <BR>Minister is involved in policies for administration of web sites at <BR>the kingdom <BR>and local level, whereas the Webmaster is in charge of the corporate <BR>web site <BR>in particular and reports
to the Chief Technical Officer, who is in <BR>turn a <BR>deputy to the Society Seneschal, Mr. George Reed. <BR><BR>In the modern world, Marla Lecin has 14 years of experience as a <BR>software <BR>engineer and ten years as a freelance web developer, her current <BR>occupation. <BR>In the SCA, Mistress Jessa d'Avondale, OP, is a resident of the East <BR>Kingdom. She has served as a Chronicler at levels up to Kingdom, as a <BR>staff <BR>member for the "Tournaments Illuminated" publication at the Society <BR>level, <BR>and in numerous other offices. She has been a member of the <BR>SCA "Webfolks" <BR>team almost since its inception, seeing the www.sca.org web pages <BR>through <BR>several major redesigns as well as countless incremental changes. Many <BR>SCA <BR>members may also recognize her contributions as webmaster of the <BR>Pennsic War <BR>web site, www.pennsicwar.org. <BR><BR>-30- <BR><BR>-- <BR>()xxxx[]::::::::::::::::::> <::::::::::::::::::[]xxxx <BR>() <BR><BR>S
