Sofwtare for review
17 September, 1991
Subject: Computer Software for Review
As the Software Review Editor for the ACS Journal of
Chemical Information and Computer Science (JCICS) I often get
software for review in the journal. I have a few packages now in
hand (see below) and I am looking for people who are willing to
review the software. In return for the review you get to keep
the software. The review should be completed in 1-2 months. The
length of the review is 4-n double spaced typed pages. Sample
reviews can be found in most of the recent issues of JCICS.
I am trying this new method to find reviewers using this
bulletin board. I hope it works. I reserve the right to abandon
this if it is a problem, or inappropriate. I will not notify
people if I have found a reviewer.
I can be reached on INTERNET, or if necessary, by phone at
301-344-6055. I will be away most of the time from now until 30
September.
