The request that it be delayed until September 15 was added by Malcolm in a handwritten note appended to his first fax. I missed this reference when I prepared the initial UW report and only now, upon reviewing initial fax, have I become aware of it. Finally, I wish to note that my policy throughout the recent IAU controversy has been to publish as much material as possible, giving all sides free rein to express their views. Several people have done so in vigorous defence of Malcolm's leadership of the IAU, most notably David Cosgrove of New Zealand. All previous articles are still posted on UW and available to anyone who wishes to review the UW World News reports in recent months.
Further contributions are also welcome.
