  Dear Colleagues,

  There will be a special year in algebraic geometry and topology
at the Australian National University, in Canberra, in 2003. The
Australian academic year runs from March to November, and the special
year will be during that period. We hope the special year will be
very lively, with many of you taking part.

  There already are some funds set aside to help visitors, and in 2002
we will be applying for substantially more. Nevertheless we would like
to encourage the participants, especially those who wish to come for
extended periods, to apply for funds from outside sources. There are
many such sources; those interested should get in touch with me, the
sooner the better.

  Please feel very free to advertise the special year to your friends.
If you know of someone I should add to the mailing list, I would be
very grateful. This goes especially for younger mathematicians and
recent PhD's. We would very much like many fresh PhD's to come.

                                    Yours, Amnon
