Hopefully you will have noticed a number of new editors that have appeared to help keep this site running. They have been active for over a week but you might not have noticed them if you have been enjoying the Thanksgiving Day holiday, or just spending money during Black Friday (which seems to last longer each year!)
Snow, Charon, FatPhil, Fnord666, and GreatOutdoors have completed their training and are busy making their contributions to the team, and there are several more volunteers who will begin training in the near future. I hope that you will welcome them and keep them busy by providing more and varied submissions for them to battle with. They have already significantly reduced the strain on the editorial team and we are all breathing a collective sigh of relief back here. Thank you for volunteering guys!

The above (submitting articles) is going to be my resolution for next year. And I don't normally do the whole resolution thing. I hope to find interesting things for y'all to edit in your new positions!

For anyone who hasn't seen them and is wondering how to submit an article, the submission guidelines are here [soylentnews.org].
I'd further recommend folks who are submitting their first stories to do so on a Friday or weekend. The submission queue tends to be shorter then and editors have more opportunity to work on individual stories; you can hop on Soylent's IRC [soylentnews.org] channel to talk to them about it if you have questions.
