Dear all,

I would like to call for contributions to the next (6th) issue of the
IVOA newsletter to be published around May 12, a few days before the 
Naples Interop.

The IVOA newsletter aims to bring the latest news about VO applications 
to astronomers by drawing upon developments throughout the international 
VO community and the national projects linked by the IVOA. It is 
composed of short (~100 word) articles highlighting new VO capabilities, 
together with a list of recent papers and upcoming events.

Articles are to be submitted to ivoa-news-editors at ivoa.net by April 20.

Contributors are requested to use the same brief format for articles as
used in the previous issues (http://www.ivoa.net/newsletter), i.e. a
short text highlighting a new application or feature, with a single
small image (that may expand to a larger one via a link) and a URL for
more information. Please keep in mind that the audience is the astronomy 
scientific community so VO jargon should be minimised, and usefulness to 
astronomers maximised!

Articles will be chosen and edited by the Newsletter Editors and the 
newsletter will be checked by an oversight committee prior to release.

Best regards,
Evanthia Hatziminaoglou, on behalf of the IVOA newsletter editors
