About Our Editorial Staff

Lisa Minter has been a helper at TELECOM Digest for about a year, since January, 2004. She mainly is in charge of getting the news used in the Digest from the wire services; she does the Yahoo group 'Telecom News' and she fills in on the editorial side when Patrick Townson is busy elsewhere.

Lisa's mother Katharine helps with the filing and the typing as needed. She also handles the spam (a lot daily) and answers email.

Lisa's husband Jason helps out as needed. He has been here since September, 2004 when he and Lisa got married.

Other than myself -- Patrick, Lisa, Justin and Lisa's mother Katharine all work just part time here, which is all the company can afford at present. You can write to Lisa in email at lisa_minter2001@yahoo.com . Her mother, and Jason also recieve email through the office address or Lisa's personal email address or on our phone at 620-402-0134.

TELECOM Digest is an electronic journal devoted mostly but not exclusively to telecommunications topics. It is circulated anywhere there is email, in addition to various telecom forums on a variety of networks such as Compuserve and America On Line, Yahoo Groups, and other forums. It is also gatewayed to Usenet where it appears as the moderated newsgroup "comp.dcom.telecom".

TELECOM Digest is a not-for-profit, mostly non-commercial educational service offered to the Internet by Patrick Townson. All the contents of the Digest are compilation-copyrighted. You may reprint articles in some other media on an occasional basis, but please attribute my work and that of the original author.
