Dear Dr. Lederberg:

At our meeting on November 3rd we discussed the possibil-
ity of an online electronic edition of the Biophysical
Journal. You expressed your willingness to present a
proposal describing such a service to the Board of the
Biophysical Society. I enclose our draft proposal for
your frank comments and your suggestions for improvements.
Clearly, we want to submit a proposal to the Board which
you would feel comfortable to endorse. I, therefore,
look forward to your criticism of this. first draft so /”
that we can develop a more satisfactory final version.

With best regards,
