We encourage letters to the Editor and longer commentary to be published in coming issues of this journal. The Executive Director, Tony Coulepis, has also indicated that he welcomes comments directly . BIO-WEBThe ABA website (www.aba.asn.au) has been undergoing reconstruction during December and January. Most of the changes to content have now been made. Over the next few months, some further changes will be made to the design and structure of the website to improve its ease of use and appearance. We do our best to accommodate users requests for links, but are not always able to accede to these requests. Every linkage is checked prior to listing on our website for its usefulness to our users, its appropriateness to Australian biotechnology and its ease of usage.
