Introduction
This is the first
official electronic newsletter from NKS. Similar newsletters are intended to be
published twice a year, prior to the regular NKS Board meetings in May and
November. The newsletters will be short, normally without attachments of any
kind, and the object is to give links to the NKS homepage for more information
on new reports, invitations to seminars and similar events. The material
referred to can be downloaded free of charge by the
reader.
The newsletters will be
sent to everyone in the NKS address list, including everyone who has requested
information on current NKS events and reports. Anyone not already on this list
can be added free of charge by contacting nks@nks.org.
In addition to the
biannual newsletters, brief newsflashes will be distributed as soon as a new
report has appeared or when new information is available on seminars etc. In
order to receive these newsflashes, you will have to subscribe to this service
by contacting nks@nks.org. This applies to
everyone, including all persons already listed in the NKS address
list.
