With immediate effect, submissions to Information Research will be handled through the journal management system, Open Journal Systems. This will provide the Editors, Reviewers and Authors with direct access to the process of review and will maintain more effective statistics on the number of submissions, etc. Papers currently in the process of review will not be affected by this change.
Also, given the amount of work I had to do over the Christmas 'holiday' to get the January issue ready, I have decided to change the production schedule. This year, there will be issues in January, April, and October (the remaining three issues of volume 12), and, with effect from 2008, the volume will be conterminous with the calendar year, with the issues of volume 13 being published in March, June, September and December. This will also have the effect of avoiding a July issue, thereby enabling a genuine summer vacation :-)
