N.B. Effective on the weekend of 25/26 November 2000 all free Mailbase discussion lists from the JISC mail service have migrated to the JISC mail service which is located at http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk. These include HERITAGE, LIS-SPRIG, LIS-TOURISM-AND HOSPITALITY, SMALL TOURISM FIRMS, TOURFOR, TOURISM-MARKETING, and TOURISM ANTHROPOLOGY and TOURISMAN. However, fee-paying lists will continue to be provided by Mailbase. List archives up to the migration date will be retained at Mailbase in addition to being transferred to JISCmail.

One additional forum should be added to the tourism discussion list presented in chapter 10, namely:

Greentour http://groups.yahoo.com/group/greentour
The Coalition for Advancement of Ecotourism (Greentour) is an interactive forum for discussion, collaboration and networking aimed at exchanging information, experiences and ideas on people, issues, policies, possibilities, problems, perspectives, activities, case studies, practices, opportunities and opinions, research and development and socio-economic and cultural aspects relating to ecotourism and sustainable development.
