There exist a good opportunity to change the structure of the Natural History Museum of Mexico City and we'd like to hear opinions on similar experiences. This museum has a very small research section and now (since 5 month ago) is part of the Environment Ministery of Mexico City. We want to put distance between the museum and the government in order to get an academic develpment instead a polital determined development. If you have legal documents or short essays about similar cases we'd like to get in contact with you, Thanks in advance Alejandro Pelaez Subdirector de Investigacion y Colecciones ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ museum-l.html.
