In the meantime, we would like to inform you that one of our 
scopes for JASS is to have Special Issues on a specific 
Application Domain of Systems Sciences. For the next year we 
are going to have two special issues. You may propose to us 
an area related to JASS in which I expect you will 
act as the "Guest Editor" under, of course, the general 
operating rules of JASS.
