Obviously it is currently a work in progress.

:-:Thanks for the laudable effort, Kiwi Flyer.:-: A number of us might be interested, though not sufficiently to do the drudge work to find the information. Your indices to the proper information and threads have made that much easier, and the history is now more readily available to FlyerTalk members.

We've moved comment and discussion posts from the History thread to this thread to maintain the purpose and integrity of that thread, as well a s to ma I train the continuity of this one (some comments were here, others there; now they can all be found here.)

Let's hope all the kudos don't get his plomb out of alignment.

Awesome work.

Someone just wanted to see their name in past glory and would like to recommend something like this Wiki entry.

That is an exceptional job, Kiwi Flyer. I had visions of the board as it was on Jan 1 of each year, but you have done so much more. You've dug into the archives and figured out who came when and left when. It's fun to browse thru the lists and see the richness of FlyerTalk's history in the names of those who served.

And I am reminded that our OP did his tour of duty as vice president.

Now up to date - at least until the results are announced for the recent election for TalkBoard members, and the upcoming election for President and Vice-President.

...and there you have it: another outstanding contribution to FlyerTalk by the one and only Kiwi Flyer, to whom I say: thank you.

I generally stay away from the OMNI/PR forum and certainly don't want to presume any party affiliations or voting blocs

I didn't use exact dates, only month and year. This is because it is generally not clear (on publicly available information) the exact dates offices took effect from or ended.

I've referenced most of the information used in case I have mis-interpreted anything.

I'm happy to consider suggestions for improvements.

An absolutely outstanding creation, thank you for taking the time to make this. I think it will help with the transparency issues that have come up the last few weeks ^
