Here is information regarding what will be available in the next issue of "Before Farming" which, in my view, is one of the best online journals available. Almost as good as what PALANTH will be!
PS Note that info is also provided on already published material that is freely available: "issues 2002/1, 2002/2 and the news, editorial and abstracts for all issues".
