[Air-l] new ! * The AoIR Journal *

[Monica Murero]

Since early in AoIR's short life, there have been questions
about when, how, and whether we should launch a 
journal of our own. AoIR does not have a journal of its 
own. Most professional associations publish one or more journals.

Since May 2004 an online working group composed by 
AoIR members has discussed thoughtful considerations of the issues 
upon which the AoIR executive committee will base a decision. 
Specifically, the group has:

1) identified existing journals that publish internet research;
2) Identified the possibilities for AoIR;
3) For each possibility the group has identified the advantages 
and disadvantages.

In Sussex we will talk more about the "AoIR journal": 
- Sunday after lunch @ the BoF session 
- On Monday afternoon, during the AoIR General Meeting. 

You are invited to participate to the discussion 
of this very important opportunity for the future of AoIR.

See you soon  !

Monica
