    1. Publication of Michigan Business Law Journal

    Volume XXIII, Issue 1 of the Journal has been printed and mailed and is also available online at www.michbar.org.

    We have received a substantial number of articles for the next issue, in large part because of the efforts of the Debtor/Creditor Rights Committee in soliciting material for publication.

    The transition to a new ICLE copy editor for the Journal appears to be going smoothly.

    A current schedule of publication dates, dates for submission of articles, and committee assignments is attached.

    2. Council Approval

    At its December 2002 meeting, the Council discussed the possibility of including a short description of each Section committee in the Journal in order to encourage interest in and participation on the committees. In view of the already substantial amount of front matter contained in the Journal (five pages) and the fact that the committee descriptions are available online, the Council may wish to revisit this idea.

    Volume XXI, Issue Number 1 of the Journal has been printed and will be mailed to the Section members and subscribers on Monday, December 10, 2001. Sample copies will be available at the December meeting.

    This issue is the first to be published in partnership with ICLE and represents the culmination of the Section's plans to restructure the Journal. It features a redesigned format as well as regular columns on topics of interest. While the committee chairpersons will continue to be responsible on a rotating basis for soliciting and reviewing articles on topics of special interest to their committees, the content of each issue has been broadened to include any topic of general interest to business practitioners. A revised schedule for publication of committee specific topics will be distributed in the near future.

    I would like to thank Mary Hiniker, Dan Kopka and Sarah Royalty of ICLE for their efforts in restructuring the Journal and also past council chairperson Dan Minkus for spearheading the effort to produce an improved publication for the Section.
