Hi Jörn, first of all sincere congrats to you for winning the Meteoritical Society Service Prize 2006 - truly deserved for what you have achieved in the field of meteoritics as one of the few first really dedicated "early modern times" [..i.e. pre-internet, since the early Eighties :-)] private collectors of meteorites, as a long-time member of the NomCom of MetSoc, as the owner of one of the biggest private collections of meteorite literature worldwide, and, last but surely not least, as the author of MetBase.
Regarding MetBase, could you please let us all know when V8.0 will be about due for release? There have been rumours about plans of re-organizing the release schedule of the meteorite bulletins from the Society, but since I unfortunately had no chance to attend this years meeting in Zurich I don´t have any further details on this. Could you add a little more..?? Alex ...on vacation, out of Berlin/Germany > Hello Tim, > > There are 62 hexahedrites known to date.
