Dear Colleagues,
We are delighted to share with you the good news that the Simons
Foundation will support arXiv's transition from an exclusive
initiative of Cornell University Library (CUL) to a collaboratively
governed, community-supported resource through a generous gift. The
press release about the funding is available at:
http://news.library.cornell.edu/news/120828/arXiv
We invite you to look at the FAQ that explains the new membership,
governance, and fiscal model:
http://arxiv.org/help/support/faq
Please share this update with your colleagues who might be interested
in the developments. If you have any questions or comments, we will
hold three conference calls to accommodate time zone differences and
invite you to join one:
September 14, Friday, noon-1pm EDT
September 17, Monday, 4pm-5pm EDT
September 18, Tuesday, 6am-7am EDT
Please register for these conference calls at:

We appreciate your support and welcome your questions and suggestions.
The arXiv Team
Oya Y. Rieger, David Ruddy, Simeon Warner
