Well one would think if they are giving a link the least they should do is
give a brief list of those involved, otherwise what is the point?
I do think many organisations today think everyone wants or can go to web sites to read things. This is not the case for any number of reasons.
Not criticising the poster here, merely the trend toward newsletters that contain nothing but links etc.
