[Cc-webedit] Process issues with recent blog post

[iggyp imc]

Dear All,

I must also agree that blog postings should be sent to the list before being
put online. This is really important as it gives us the chance to check the
content and ensure we are putting up accurate and well written material. And
aside from that, it is a method that we all agreed, and should follow.

As regards the style - if we don't use the tools and the system properly, it
makes the site look messy, untidy and unprofessional. So, knowing many of
you as i do, i don't think that any of you are messy, untidy or
unprofessional - so lets ensure the site we work on reflects that.

Thanks
Brian.
