I went looking for special notice #300 (suspect object in the Hyades) this afternoon. I couldn't find it. In the meantime #301 had been issued, and that was not apparent on the website. #299 is the last one available on the special notice archive page.
BITD, new AAVSO Alerts etc. were prominently featured on the web site - are they there somewhere now, and I'm just not seeing them, or is the only way to see what's current to root through my e-mail? I ask because I was posting something via social media, and I wanted a link to the special notice itself.

Hi Jim,
The web versions for alerts and special notices are not automatically generated -- they're currently created like all other web pages by the staff. We ran out of time yesterday -- Special Notices 300 and 301 will go online this morning. I apologize for not getting that done before going offline for the evening.
In the meantime, the Alert and Special Notice archives can be accessed by going to the "Observing" tab -- Alert and Special Notices are the fourth item from the top in the drop-down menu. You can also find them in the same way under the "About Us" tab, in the "Publications" submenu.
