Memos are hip and cool again

So I totally blanked last week — or maybe the past two weeks? — and didn’t post the memo. And so I saw that Romenesko’s going all crazy and linking to blogs and had linked to the memo on another site, so clearly I missed my chance at hot hot Jim Romenesko linking action. Alas.

To correct these ills, here’s the latest figures:

Full memo after the jump. A tip of the hat to VisualEditors.com because they had already fixed the stupid returns I usually have to take out by hand.

I. Progress on developing the new newsroom plan
II. Expressions of interest in the buyout
III. Answers to frequently asked questions
