Subject: Revised version of "Tragic loss or good riddance ..."

A revised version of my essay, "Tragic loss or good riddance?  The
impending demise of traditional scholarly journals" is now available.
This revision consists of a condensed version, to be submitted for
publication in Notices AMS, and a full version, with all the data
and arguments.

The new version can be accessed through Mosaic at URL

   ftp://netlib.att.com/netlib/att/math/odlyzko/tragic.loss.Z

For those without access to Mosaic, ftp access is available on machine
netlib.att.com.  After logging in as "anonymous" and giving the full
email address as password, do

  cd netlib/att/math/odlyzko
  binary
  get tragic.loss.Z

to obtain a copy of the (compressed) version.

To obtain the revision through email, send the message

  send tragic.loss from att/math/odlyzko

to netlib@research.att.com.  The (uncompressed) that that will be
send is 194 KB.  If your mailer cannot handle large files, include
in your message the line

  mailsize 40k

if you wish the revision to be sent in chunks of at most 40 KB, say.
