Welcome to the Spring 2009 edition of the MAPCL Newsletter!

With the changing of the seasons just around the corner we have some changes for the readers of our monthly newsletter.

Our new look is the first major change that you will see. We had kept the old design of the newsletter for quite a while and a change was long overdue.

The second major change is the schedule of release dates for the publication. Starting with this issue we'll be moving to quarterly release dates with our next issue scheduled for the Summer of 2009.

Thanks everyone and if you have any comments on this or previous issues of the newsletter please email them to: info@mapcl.org. Talk to you again in June!
