"Nga mihimihi o te wa ki a koe. Kei te pai tou Panui, he mahi ataahua. As my friend wrote to me this morning, when telling me about Rangikainga Issue 2, your panui is a "huge and wonderful compendium of the renaissance". The vibrancy of it all is so visible in this electronic format, and the news comes from nga hau e wha – all around the motu and indeed from te ao whanui."
