Dear all,

We would like to call for contributions to the next (9th) issue of the
IVOA newsletter that we intend to publish mid October around the time of
the Sao Paulo IVOA interop meeting.

The IVOA newsletter aims to bring the latest news about Virtual
Observatory 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 October 5.

Contributors are requested to use the same brief format for articles  as
used in the previous issues (http://www.ivoa.net/newsletter). This is 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. Remember that the audience is the general astronomy
scientific community so VO jargon must be minimised, and usefulness to 
astronomers maximised!

Articles will be chosen and edited by the Newsletter Editors. We hope
to be as inclusive as possible, and the newsletter will be checked by an
oversight committee  prior to release.

best regards,
Mark Allen, on behalf of the IVOA newsletter editors
