Earlier today, I got an email from a Globe staffer noting that my list (scroll down) of reporters and writers taking the latest buyout offer was incomplete. I was going to try again--but the Herald's Christine McConville beat me to it, compiling by far most comprehensive run-down yet on the latest Globe exodus.
