Who is the ACF president?
Sorry, I have been away and likely missed a lot, like who is the ACF president nowadays, wanted to ask what would be the cut off issue of the ACF Bulletin that can be shown online, I have it set at acfb409 - Feb 21.pdf, perhaps it can be raised?

tgf asked "wanted to ask what would be the cut off issue of the ACF Bulletin that can be shown online, I have it set at acfb409 - Feb 21.pdf, perhaps it can be raised?" The editor, Jim Loy should be able to answer this question. I will send him an email with your question. His email is jimloy76@gmail.com

From Jim Loy:
First of all, every year, the February issue is given away for free to those who have not yet renewed. And I suspect that the same February issue is printed in greater quantity than other issues, to give away as a sample, if someone is thinking of joining. So maybe we should be showing the most recent February issue online, all the time.
I have not been consistent with archiving Bulletins. I uploaded the 2016 ACF Bulletins to https://www.usacheckers.com/forum/viewt ... 834#p32834 and the subject line was "ACF Bulletins (up to 2016)" in 2020. You have to login to download the Bulletins. That was only four years after the last of those Bulletins. We could certainly use more Bulletins on the Forum. We don't want to give away the most recent ones for free, as we want to sell memberships. And members often want today's tournament announcements. So I guess Bulletins from four years ago (and earlier) are fine. But I don't know the ideal number of years.
