I posted the note below to the digest about a month ago, but as always
seems to happen, it stops publishing when I do it that way! So here's
hoping it gets around this time! If any NEW members of the ALP did not get
a copy of the newsletter at the Conference in Seattle just finished please
let me know.
-------------------------------

A recent note about the Association for Logic Programming left one benefit
of membership: the Newsletter.

I have recently taken over as editor from Luis Pereira, and the first edition
went out last week. It is being air-freighted to the US so people should get
it well before the conference, which is just as well since it includes all
the abstracts of papers for the conference, so you can plan your time better
when you are there!

We are planning to publish it from now on on a regular four-issues per year
basis and welcome submissions from net users. Since we're doing it desk-top,
computer files are the most welcome means for anything over 300 words.  My
address is cdsm@doc.ic.ac.uk or cdsm@icdoc.uucp (via mcvax and ukc), or, by
mail, Dr. Chris Moss, Dept. of Computing, Imperial College, 180 Queen's
Gate, London SW7 2BZ, UK.

Of particular interest are items about individuals and institutions involved
in logic programming, abstracts of new reports, calls for papers in relevant
areas, as well as any short communications on general subjects. The
membership, though small, extends to over 20 countries with an unparalled
reach to the key people.

Anyone can get a sample copy by sending me a note (but no multiple
requests!).
