'As you may already know, this Review is being published on our website from which printed copies can be obtained easily. However, we have produced some printed copies for Libraries and for sale at a modest price of £2.00 each for those people who would like printed copies (The order form has full details of cost of postage, etc.).
When we set up an e-mail list (bcs-mt@jisc.ac.uk) at http://www.jisc.ac.uk earlier this year it was thought that this would replace our membership records at BCS Headquarters in Swindon, but it has since transpired that they are able to provide us with lists of e-mail addresses as well from their records so we now intend to continue to maintain these records. However, the e-mail list , bcs-mt@jisc.ac.uk remains available for members to communicate queries and problems with other members. To reach a wider international audience we recommend the use of mt-list@eamt.org (at http://www.eamt.org).
Once again we must ask you to consider contributing to this Review. We would still welcome more articles, papers and reports on the subject of machine translation and related subjects such as computer assisted language teaching, computer based dictionaries and aspects of multi-linguality in computing etc. We would welcome papers from staff and students in linguistics and related disciplines, and from translators and any other users of MT software.
May I remind members yet again, that they do not need to live near London to assist the Committee. We do not have sufficient funds to pay travel expenses for all Committee members to attend meetings, but we still welcome Correspondent members. Correspondent committee members are otherwise treated as full members of the committee and kept advised of all committee business. Anyone interested in helping should contact me or any other Committee member.
Our committee still requires a treasurer, in our case the role is more of an auditor since all our transactions are processed by the BCS. This post does, of course, require some knowledge of accounting, but not much I'm glad to say, and, as mentioned above this does not need to be for someone in the London area. Anybody interested to know more, please contact me.
All opinions expressed in this Review are those of the respective writers and are not necessarily shared by the BCS or the Group.'
