Over the past week and a half I've been spending the majority of my time going through the archives of articles and making sure they are formatted properly, images are included, source files are attached, that sort of thing. For most of the time I'm simply going in article number order, one after another, but I'm also keeping an eye on issues submitted to the Articles section of the tracker through the Feedback button. See my last update here on the staff blog for things to notify me about - I'll handle them as they come up. I'm currently at article number 660, with several more recent articles done already too as result of issue submissions. At this pace I should have things in the archives back to normal by the end of May and can start focusing on publishing again.

If you would like to help speed things along, I could use help formatting interviews, design and business articles. There are enough of these in the archives that other people doing them would make a good dent in my workload and they are also relatively simple to handle - basically they just need some simple text formatting and spacing, maybe some image replacement. If you're interested, please drop me an email - drew@gamedev.net

I also want to mention that I'm currently down to an iPhone as my main computing device until at least Friday thanks to some unfortunate tech issues with my laptop and new desktop rig, so excuse me for being a bit scarce in the meantime. Yea this was posted from my iPhone. Pretty sweet. Definitely keeps me from rambling too much.

I'm lining up some cool content for May/June as I start getting more time back for publishing. Stay tuned for more on that next month!
