Dear Jim,

I think what you did is extremely useful, also because it will make the
views of MR on category theory very clear. My list below contains APCS in
addition to the two journals everybody mentions. It does not contain HHA and
JHRS, not because I have anything against them, but because we are
explicitly talking about category theory now (according to your message to
MR).

Dear Andree, Bob, and Bob,

Could you please urgently confirm that you agree to include the journal you
are taking care of to the list above, and confirm the details I gave?

With best regards to all - George

Dear Jim,

There should be mention of Mathematical Structures in Computer Science.
Although it's not exclusively about category theory, categories have
always played a prominent role in the mathematical structures used.

Regards,

Steve Vickers.

Re: [Fwd: inquiry in re: citations and (fwd)]

[Andree Ehresmann]

Dear George,

Naturally I agree that the "Cahiers" be included in the list.

Since many years, the Math. Reviews ask me to send them 2 free copies
of each issue of the "Cahiers", which I do regularly, and the papers
in the "Cahiers" are analysed and figure in their authors'list of
publication (at least for those I have verified). However I have just
seen that the "Cahiers" as such are not in the list of journals and I
am going to write them to have an explanation.

With all my best wishes for the new year,
Warm regards
Andree

Dear Professor Stasheff,

Your message has been forwarded to my attention.

Reference lists appear in MathSciNet from journals included in the Mathematical
Reviews Citation Database. These journals are selected through an editorial
process that includes approval by the Mathematical Reviews Editorial Committee
(MREC). Citation Database reference list journals are reexamined each year in
October. The list of current Citation Database reference list journals can be
found at: http://www.ams.org/mrcitations/journal_list.html.

Please feel free to send me specific examples of journals you might have in
mind and I will forward them to MREC for their consideration. Let me know
if you have further questions.

Sincerely,
Calista Stafford

I am told that according to Mathematical Reviews, the citations in
Category Theory journals are not citations!

If true, can something be done about it?

thanks
