Subject:      electronic NSF reviews

     
The National Science Foundation is now prepared to accept reviews
of research proposals via the electronic mail system.  Such a
review should be sent directly to the program manager requesting
the review. The review should contain the proposal number as well
as the text of the review and an overall rating.  The official
foundation policy is that the name of the investigator and the
title of the proposal should appear in the message as the second
and third lines, immediately after the proposal number and before
the text of the review.  In light of possible security problems
while the electronic review is in transit, I will accept
electronic reviews without a title and investigator name in the
message.
