<p>Dear FISers,</p>
<p>See below a great initiative by Xueshan. If more parties imitate
this procedure and invite their colleagues and acquaintances to
the list, we may recuperate a similar level of affiliation soon,
perhaps with a higher level of interest and compromise. I have
slightly edited his message to facilitate its re-use. Some of
those parties below have already subscribed to the list.<br>
</p>
<p>Thanks Xueshan for the great idea!<br>
</p>
<p>Best--Pedro<br>

FIS(Foundations of Information Science) Forum is the only
international arena to discuss the theoretical foundation of
contemporary information science. According to the European
Directive on Data Protection, the forum has recently been
adjusted and needs to be re-registered. Taking this
opportunity, I am entrusted by my colleague Pedro--the list
coordinator, vice-president of The International Society for
the Study of Information, and an Spanish biologist--to invite
you, to join our forum. Within my vision, all of you are
colleagues who have profound insights into information issues.
To do that, you only need to fill in your e-mail address at
the following address: <span class="MsoHyperlink"><a
href="http://listas.unizar.es/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fis"
moz-do-not-send="true">http://listas.unizar.es/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fis</a></span>,
and set up a password. Our forum does not collect any other
personal information and is free. After registration, the
website will automatically form a mailing list of all the
posts circulating and send them to your mailbox.<br>
