This blog looks great! Why leave it in the sandbox? Of course, I missed the last meeting where everyone probably discussed reasons to leave it in the sandbox, but I don’t see any obvious reasons why it shouldn’t go live sooner rather than later. The Texas Digital Library scholarly communications blog that Sharon pointed us to has a bit more polish, but I think that polish can develop over time. Just a thought.
