UPA Voice - every 2 months from now on.

After a regrettable absence, this is the re-emergence of the new voice. It's currently wearing old clothes but will be further developed (content wise and visually) in future issues. The Voice will be produced every 2 months, with the primary aim of keeping us in some sort of contact with each other. In particular we are devoting space every issue to chapter news - an important way for us to connect with usability colleagues from aroung the world.

Comments, contributions, criticisms very welcome - email the editorial team.
