Since publishing Paul Renner in October, we have gone into quiet preparation mode, hoping to keep to the forecast of finishing Anthony Froshaug and Typeform dialogues in 1999. We also hope – before too long – to post some previously unpublished material in the ‘column’ on this site. Meanwhile, we wish readers, buyers, site-visitors, contributors, colleagues and friends: all the best for the new year (in whichever calendar).
