With the approaching TOPOSYM16 (http://www.toposym.cz/programme.php), it is a pleasure to see selection principles gain increasing attention and becoming a standard part of topology and set theory. At least eight of the 28 speakers, and a good number of the contributed lecture speakers, made substantial contributions to this topic in their career. For some of these, SPs constitute the main topic of research in the last few years. This is in accordance with the continuous progress on the topic, some of which reported in this bulletin.
In addition to research announcements, this issue features a call for papers to a Topology and its Applications special issue, and an intriguing open problem.
This issue surveys some of the activities in the field since the previous issue, and announces a conference fully dedicated to the topic of selection principles.
A surprising number of new results in core SPM in the last quarter of 2007, and some other beautiful fundamental results are announced.
