Hello:

A phone mail message on the publisher's answering machine indicates that
the weekly publication "has been suspended." No data on the final part
has
been given, nor any information on when, if ever, this will resume.

The message only states that "you will be notified" about further
developments.

A further message indicates that the 2000 yearbook in print format has
just
been mailed from the printers.  The 1999 yearbook was available only on
the
Internet.

I hope that this is helpful.

A "reliable source" says the AB ceased publication in December.  There's
been some discussion of it on EXLIBRIS (mailing list).  I haven't
received
any official word, though.  I also don't know the status of the AB
yearbook.
