Editorial

Apart from containing information about CIM and its activities, the Bulletin will continue to publish material of general interest to mathematicians. While diversifying the types of articles included, we will try to keep the high quality of previous issues. We are grateful to Professor F. J. Craveiro de Carvalho for passing on to us several contributions he obtained for the Interview, Great Moments and Gallery sections. They will appear in this and the following issues.

The Bulletin will expand to accomodate, in each issue, a mathematical or historical article of interest to the mathematical community, as well as a generalist section on `What's new in Mathematics', adapted from the AMS section with the same title and reprinted here with the kind permission of the AMS.

We hope the Bulletin may be a contribution to the main purpose of CIM ­ to act as a forum for the Portuguese mathematical research community.
