date: Mon, 13 Oct 2003 16:53:29 +0100 from: "Andy Jordan" subject: GEC to: "'Neil Adger'" , "'Mike Hulme'" Hi Mary Malin of Elsevier just called me and we discussed life post Martin for about 20 mins. Just to update you on how things now stand: 1. MP to depart in January; ideally AJ and TOR to depart same time (but see below) 2. Elsevier are already drawing up a shortlist of new eds, and the UEA was already on it. I mentioned you two and she already knew a lot about TYN/ENV. She said she would contact you soon. 3. She wanted the instits col. to continue as its was very popular. I said I would 'babysit' someone new for a few issues if it relocated to UEA but wanted out in the medium to long term (ie during 2003). 4. The current impact factor is c. 0.94, having dropped from above 1.0 last year. Elsevier are keen to raise it back again and see fresh editorial faces/a relaunch as one (unexpected) way to do this. Mary's details: m.malin@elsevier.com Tel: 01865 843471 Over to you two... Cheers Andy ______________________________________________ Dr Andrew J.
