Dear Pedro,

Glad to hear from you. Your silence was, of course, expressive, containing much 
information . . .

Now all of us will be waiting impatiently to learn about the the new, exciting 
themes that were discussed at the Milton Keynes Conference.

Best wishes,

Joseph

Dear FIS Friends,

Apologies for my long silence. As I have already said several times, my 
science management duties are killing not only my time but also my nerve 
(well, not completely!). Imagine what is happening with the financing 
and organization of Spanish science these years...

Anyhow, a couple of good news about our common Information Science 
endeavor. First, there has been an excellent conference in Milton 
Keynes, organized by the Open University, about Information ("the 
difference that makes a difference"). Quite exciting discussions on our 
most dear themes, and some new ones that we have rarely addressed here. 
The organizers, a very active team indeed, are cordially invited to lead 
a discussion session in our FIS list to continue with the conceptual 
explorations addressed in their conference.

And the second news is about an imminent FIS CONFERENCE, MOSCOW 2013, 
the Sixth FIS, and the 1st of the ISIS organization. It will be held 
this May, from 21 to 24 in Moscow. This time the Russian organizers have 
followed a singular procedure, a relatively closed conference centered 
in the diffusion of information science in the Russian scientific 
community.  At the time being, to my knowledge (I could not follow very 
well the process), only the members of the ISIS board have been enlisted 
as foreign participants. But given that there will be several absences, 
interested FIS parties might ask about their possible participation.  
The schedule is too tight for travels, visas etc, and again I have to 
apologize for not having posted this info before (info glut!). In any 
case, am sure that our colleague Konstantin  Kolin ( koli...@mail.ru ), 
leading organizer, and member of the Russian Academy of Science, will be 
happy to respond to interested parties and help them to accelerate the 
process.

Best wishes to all

---Pedro
