Dear Colleagues:

Dr. Haroldo Domingo Reinhardt, Chairperson, Pineapple Working Group, asked that I send the information below to you.

I also wish to thank Pineapple Working Group members for their past contributions to Pineapple News and ask you to please also consider contributing to the 17th issue of Pineapple News.  Pineapple News is not an official publication so you can submit a long abstract of a paper to be presented or published elsewhere to the newsletter without affecting your opportunity to publish it in a formal journal at another time.  The deadline for submissions is February 28, 2010.  If you need more time, please contact me at duaneb AT hawaii.edu.

With best regards,
Duane
