«FROM THE EDITORIAL BOARD»

Dear friends and colleagues!

Over a year has passed since the publication of this jubilee issue of our Bulletin. We are extremely thankful to you for the letters of support and for your understanding. Thanks to the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, we will be able to go on publishing our Bulletin, though at a reduced length. We will have to find other ways of disseminating the information that can no longer be printed in the Bulletin. We hope that you will give us your suggestions.

In future we will not be able to include information on grant applications, conferences and workshops in the Bulletin or its supplements. This information will be circulated on the Internet instead. Other materials will be published in the Bulletin but in abridged form while unabridged versions will be available on the Internet. If do not have access to the Internet, you may request these versions via e-mail.

Also, we have had to re-register the addressees of our Bulletin. This will not affect persons working directly in the reserves system or similar organizations.

We have decided to make our Bulletin more ecologically friendly: the paper will be thinner and less white.

Finally, we care very much about the opinions of our readers concerning the content of the Bulletin and ways to improve it. We look forward to hearing from you.
