Ladies and Gentlemen,

it is with great pleasure that we can now officially announce that
The W. Ross Ashby Digital Archive is available at http://www.rossashby.info

We would be delighted if you would take the time to have a look at the  
digital archive web site, and where appropriate, help to spread  
awareness of its availability, by mentioning it and linking to it in  
any mailing lists, newsletters, or web sites that you are involved in.

With thanks and best wishes,
Jill, Sally, Ruth, and Mick
