Prague - Dear readers, in the unlikely case you have not had enough of holiday season wishes by now, here comes one from the team, which has been bringing you English-language news at Aktuálně.cz for the last quarter of the year.
We will now leave you to the merrymaking and retire to hibernation for the rest of the year only to come back bigger and better than ever in 2008. That´s a promise.
Who are we?
The work of the whole team has been very anonymous most of the time, with the articles signed almost exclusively by the authors of the original Czech texts.
But I think this is a good opportunity for a roll call of everybody who has helped put the Czechnews online over the last three months (and two weeks, to be exact).
Starring (in alphabetical order): Ivan Eckhardt, Filip Hubáček, Jiří Kobělka, Blanka Křivánková, Vendula Křížová, Jana Mračková, Julek Neumann, Radim Samek, Michal Šnajdr, Anna Štorkánová, Katherin Zabehlicky. Stumbling along: myself.
And I could not be happier to announce to you that from January this site will finally have what you all deserve: a competent head in the person of Naďa Straková, whom I happen to know rather well and so can assure you that under her leadership the Czechnews is guaranteed to rock.
Send us your comments
With our team growing, we very much hope that your appreciation of our work will do the same. We do have every intention of making this site your personal favorite.
For that to come true, we will need your feedback, so feel free to bombard us with comments and criticism.
You can start right now. The floor is yours in the discussion below. Once again, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from the Czechnews team of Aktuálně.cz.
