Dear Colleagues,

My apologies for appearing to have abandoned posting here.  The Bionet
email to news gateway has been down (as the bounced emails in my
mailbox will attest), and the successful appearance of this email may
signal its revival.  

If this post succeeds, expect 3 or 4 more messages (incl. one very
late one - sorry).  The good news is that I have ditched a fair amount
of spam (NetSpeak for "junk mail").

From June 24 to August 2, 1996, The American Phytopathological Society 
(APS) will host a free, interactive, on-line symposium on Karnal 
bunt---an emerging plant disease affecting wheat, durum wheat, and 
triticale.

Karnal bunt was discovered in 1931 in India near the city of Karnal. 
Since then, the disease has been found in the primary wheat-growing areas 
of India, Pakistan, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Mexico. In March 1996, 
scientists confirmed the presence of Karnal bunt in Arizona in certified 
durum wheat seed, the first known occurrence of this disease in the U.S. 
It has since been found in several counties in adjacent areas of Texas, 
New Mexico, and California. Future U.S. Karnal bunt-related crop losses 
may not be drastic, but the disease does have quarantine significance and 
therefore could affect domestic grain exports.

APS' free on-line symposium will feature papers from noted Karnal bunt 
experts, as well as from other wheat scientists. Participants in this 
interactive symposium will be able to pose questions and comments to 
these experts or to other attendees via electronic mail. An APS moderator 
will open and close the symposium, and will ensure that discussions stay 
on track. The symposium will also contain links to other Internet sites 
of interest, and will include a folder of press clippings about the 
ongoing status of the disease and its management.

The on-line Karnal bunt symposium will serve as a prelude to the 1996 APS 
Annual Meeting in Indianapolis, where, among other things, additional 
technical sessions will be held on the subject of Karnal bunt.

For more information about this on-line symposium, or on the Annual 
Meeting it precedes, visit the APSnet WorldWideWeb home page at:  
http://www.scisoc.org/

We look forward to your participation in this exciting electronic event, 
and appreciate any help you can provide in spreading the word about this 
symposium throughout your department.

Greeting CSM members,

I will be on summer vacation from Jul 15 - Aug 3.  I'll try to check
for posts a couple of times a day and forward them to the newsgroup
and mailing list.  However, I will be out of town from Jul 28 until
Aug 3.


Also:
====

I'm looking for somebody who can take over running this mailing list
and moderating the newsgroup.  It would be an ideal volunteer task for
a young enthusiastic scientist to network with colleagues (hint!
hint!).

As many of you know, Max Firtel and I started this list after the
Vancouver CSM meeting.  We had hoped to generate a paperless method
for CSM members and committees to communicate with the membership as a
whole.  It was anticipated to co-ordinate such a mailing
list/newsgroup with a CSM World Wide Web page.  It was aimed to save
the CSM money on postal and paper costs.  We had envisaged that it
would be used more than as a bulletin board for Web sites and
"Post-doc wanted" advertisements - but that's ok - these are useful
functions.  Max was to do the PR and I was to do the "techie stuff"
but since our sad loss of Max, I have been running the list by myself.

I no longer work in a microbiology lab - having moved in July 1995 to
a laboratory where the research predominates around the cloning and
expression of antibodies.  I am also finding it very difficult to
continue effectively maintaining this mailing list and newsgroup in
light of my currently increasing work load, especially since I should
be doing more to bring the mailing list and newsgroup to CSM members'
attention (i.e. the PR part).

After a couple of years, it's time for me to step down and for
somebody else to take it over.  Fortunately, Bionet now handles the
majority of the "techie stuff" for us, so a vast knowledge of Unix or
Internet protocols is no longer required.  All the volunteer would
need is a separate mailbox account to handle the administration.
(Don't do it from your own email account as it gets too confusing as
to which is personal mail and which is CSM's).

This email account should have the ability to forward email without
stripping mail headers or formatting it in a proprietary way (ask your
computer admin if your mailer does that. Some PC and Mac mailers do
that, most Unix mailers don't).

I am extremely willing to help my successor get the system up and
running, and will make available this "CSM" account at NRC to him/her
while he/she are setting up and debugging his/her own system.

In the event that I am swamped with volunteers, I will probably ask
the one with combination of i) better computer skills, ii) stability
of location, and iii) enthusiasm (not in that order) to take over.

sincerely,
John Nash

[Delayed from Jul 5, due to posting problems. Sorry - JN]

	    BIOSCI is about halfway to its funding goal!!

I'm interrupting the usual monthly posting of the BIOSCI miniFAQ to
bring you up to date on BIOSCI fundraising progress, a topic of
concern to your future use of this resource.  Thank you in advance for
taking the time to read this message carefully.

Last year we announced that BIOSCI was going to adopt the U.S. Public
Broadcasting System model to fund its operations after our DOE/NSF
grant runs out later this year.  Unlike PBS, we are not soliciting
contributions from users; we are only selling ads on our Web pages
solely to cover our operating costs.  Our goal is to seek sponsorships
until we build up an operating reserve of about $100,000 and then
cease further promotions until we need to build the reserve back up.
(The accountants among our readership will be familiar with the
problem of deferred revenue which we can not safely utilize until ads
have been displayed for a period of time.)  We are only about halfway
to our funding goal and need to raise further funds to avoid having to
curtail services at net.bio.net.  Fundraising is time-consuming,
however, and we need your help as explained further below.

Our operating costs consist of our network connection, phone lines,
hardware maintenance (we will be getting newer and faster hardware
soon!), plus 0.7 FTE of salaries covering UNIX systems admin,
technical support, quality assurance, i.e., testing, of our system,
and administrative costs (such as the time it takes to actually
find/write/call potential sponsors and raise money!).  Although the
BIOSCI staff does get compensated for a portion of the work that they
do, this project has always received a lot of free after-hours and
"vacation" time labor, so we hope that no one will begrudge the time
that we do charge to the project to serve you.  All of the three
part-time staff members, Dave Mack, Julie Lawrence, and myself, have
full time day jobs and families in addition to working hard to keep
this service running for all of you.  Julie and Dave Mack are
subcontractors for BIOSCI; my time that is charged to the project
defrays a portion of my regular salary instead of adding to my income.

Besides having to relocate the project, we were very busy this last
year building new infrastructure such as our WWW hypermail interface
to the system.  This was released last December along with scores of
WAIS indices for the newsgroups.  Virtually everything is complete,
although we do continue to find and fix bugs (many through your
helpful feedback!).  We are still having some problems with our WAIS
indexing.  The archives continue to grow rapidly.  We are running over
100 indexes now versus three previously and any systems crashes cause
greater havoc with the indexing than before!  We are still working to
fix this as fast as our resources permit and appreciate your patience,
but we have been able to automate a lot of the infrastructure to
reduce labor as compared to past requirements.

We have also implemented new software to make moderation of
BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups much easier and combat the growing problem of
Internet junk mail and USENET "spamming."  About 20% of our groups are
now moderated, many of them by the BIOSCI staff!  This, for example,
made a major difference last year in the quality of content in our
EMPLOYMENT/bionet.jobs.offered newsgroup which many commercial
concerns and recruiting firms are using **without charge** to recruit
candidates for positions in the biological sciences.

We are also now in a position to have sponsors for individual
newsgroups as you will have noticed if you have visited
http://www.bio.net/ and clicked on "Access the BIOSCI/bionet
newsgroups" recently.

So, how can you help??
----------------------

As noted above it can take a lot of time to contact potential sponsors
if I have to do it all myself.  Our request is quite simple.  You can
do two important things which will take very little time for you
individually.  

First, please use our WWW system at http://www.bio.net/ to access the
archives.  You can now post or reply to messages via your Web browser.
Your usage helps attract sponsors.  If you contact any of our
sponsors, please be sure to thank them for supporting BIOSCI.  It is
critical for them to get this feedback if they are to continue their
sponsorship for the long term.

Second, if you work for a company or organization that provides
products or services of interest to the biology community, please pass
this message on to your marketing or marketing communications
department or other appropriate group.  Please ask them to help
support BIOSCI by sponsoring our Web site and explain the uses and
benefits of the system to the biology community.  If they are
interested, they can then contact us for further information at our
tech support address, biosci-help@net.bio.net.

Our hope is to quickly raise several large corporate/institutional
sponsors on our heavily-used WWW locations (some stats appended
below), and then end this sponsorship campaign so that our resources
can continue to be used for service provision, not fundraising.  Many
of our specialty newsgroup WWW archives are still used by small
communities of scientists (and they haven't been heavily promoted
yet).  While these may be valuable niche markets to some advertisers,
it will generate more labor and overhead having to find these
sponsors, fairly price the locations, and deal with lots of smaller
sponsorships than fewer mid-to large sponsors.  We are striving to
keep our operation as lean and efficient as possible since we are not
trying to make careers out of running BIOSCI.  We are trying if at all
possible to avoid the administrative overhead entailed with processing
lots of small payments to reach our fundraising goals.

I'd like to thank all of you for your help in advance. In helping us,
you are also helping yourselves, not only in keeping this resource
available for all of the both large and small research communities
that we serve, but also by alleviating the need for us to go back and
compete with researchers for tight grant dollars!  We promised NSF
when we were awarded the BIOSCI grant that we would carry out this
mission to make the service self-supporting.  With your help, we will
succeed in continuing BIOSCI's work into its second decade.  Thank you
very much!

				Sincerely,

				Dave Kristofferson
				BIOSCI/bionet Manager
