-<p>We need experienced review managers. Please take a look at
-the list of libraries in need of managers and check out their
-descriptions. If you can serve as review manager for any of
-them, email Ron Garcia or Tom Brinkman &quot;garcia at cs dot indiana dot edu&quot;
-and &quot;reportbase at gmail dot com&quot; respectively.</p>
-<p>A link to this report will be posted to www.boost.org.
-If you would like us to make any modifications or additions to this
-report before we do that, please email Ron or Tom.</p>
-<p>If you're library author and plan on submitting a library for review
-in the next 3-6 months, send Ron or Tom a
-short description of your library and we'll add it to the
-Libraries Under Construction below. We know that there are many
-libaries that are near completion, but we have hard time keeping
-track all of them. Please keep us informed about your progress.</p>
