In another step for African technical development and technology transfer, the African Technology Forum (ATF) has teamed up with the Ethiopian Society of Mechanical Engineers (ESME) to publish the ESME Journal and ESME conference proceedings online.  The ESME Journal is published in Ethiopia with the assistance of the Ethiopian Science and Technology Commission.  The international dissemination of African scientific, technical, and industrial information by and for Africans is crucial to our continent's continuing development, and has been a guiding principle at ATF since 1988.  ATF urges all African professionals to become avid readers of these publications, and we invite all African technical organizations and scientific societies to join us in further publications along these lines.
