I like having both logs, because they are two separate issues.
I agree with going with the flow on your questions Atty
we need an editor schedule, but all now have editor rights. only mods can look up the times, so I'd ask how they want to do that.
the list either needs a home outside for us to link to- which means that it will have to be copied and moved, or we just post it in PVT several times a day. One suggestion that i have is that if the editor on duty is in the process of making changes to the list, they add "editing" in large font to the top of the list, save that and then make the changes, then remove the word when they're done. (does that make any sense? )
