Dr. Ted LLoyd at the Victorian College of Pharmacy coordinates it. Contact Ted or me for further details. The proposed journal would have to cover substantially different ground to J. Mol. Graphics.

After thinking about it for a while (and reading what others think...), I thought I'd add my two cents worth. As others have mentioned, there are quite a number of journals either dedicated to molecular modeling and computational chemistry, or who readily accept this type of article (ever count how many molecular modeling or computational chemistry articles typically appear in a JACS issue?). Therefore, I would have to question the purpose of the journal. The one positive aspect I see is that there is no ACS journal dedicated to this subject. It would be nice to have that. Rather than starting a new journal, how about modifying and renaming JCICS? Bill, correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't article submissions, subscriptions, etc, been down on JCICS in the last several years? George R.

Bill Ross The bionet news hierarchy is available by email, but I can't find the info on how to subscribe. Try a question to biosci@genbank.bio.net I am appending a list of the bionet groups. There are other news hierarchies of interest as well, e.g. sci.xxx, comp.xxx etc. By far the easier way to browse the info that such groups could fill your mailbox with is with a newsreader. Consult your site manager on the availability of Usenet news and newsreaders at your site. For an introduction to Usenet and Internet services in general, Zen and the Art of the Internet is very well written and is available at lots of anonymous ftp sites - info appended further below.
