Dear Dr. Gentry:

I am writing on behalf of President Atkinson in response to your letter of January 2, 2002, in which you enclosed a copy of your correspondence to the National Science Foundation (NSF) regarding the e-print archive that they finance. I have made some inquiries with Los Alamos National Laboratory to better understand the issues you raised, and I am informed that the computer repository was transferred from Los Alamos to Cornell University subsequent to the incident you described in your letter. Therefore, your request for publication is now a matter between the National Science Foundation and Cornell University. We hope that this issue will be resolved to your satisfaction.

Sincerely,

Ronald A. Nelson
Director, Contracts Management
Laboratory Administration
