Being more traditional in nature, the changes in Section A (Foundations of Crystallography) affected only the format and not the content. The total number of papers published in Section A has decreased slightly over the past few years, but the actual number of papers received by Co-editors increased in 1994. To increase submissions, a more active policy of commissioning Lead Articles was instituted. Two were published during the year, and eight more are being written, with the aim to have one per issue. Likewise, the first five Topical Reviews were commissioned and it is expected that once readers become familiar with these papers, successive reviews will be submitted by potential authors. Efforts are on-going to attract more Lead Articles and Reviews to Section A.
