Director of Technology's report, June 2005

Hi everyone,

A pretty slow month for me, owing largely to the fact that I travelled
a lot and was really only in NYC on Rhizome time for about half the
month. Would it be ludicrous to say that I still need a vacation? Oh,
so it goes.

A few notes:

1. Raw spam
Occasionally people try to use various parts of Rhizome, particularly
the Raw mailing list, to spread spam. We don't really have an automated
solution for it, but if you see anybody sending out stuff that is
clearly off-topic and/or inappropriately commercial, let me know and
I'll quietly kick them off. Please note that this does not apply to
posters who are simply confrontational or even incoherent. Incoherence
will always have a home at Rhizome.

2. Commissions came out, finally!
After much delay, we announced the winners of the 2005-2006 Commissions
cycle. Congrats to all, and keep in mind that we're planning a
real-life Commission event in October, with human bodies and cocktails
and everything. Go see the winners at http://rhizome.org/commissions/ .
