Denis,
The following message was posted a while back on the list. I did download the
paper mentioned, but I can only find a hardcopy of it now. It's definitely
worth a look.

Dear Sirs,
I have prepared a small paper concerning the electronic resources on
forestry over the Internet for the proceedings of the EUFORIS'94 meeting at
Nancy, last March. I have received approval that I may
post the text on the gopher server at METLA. The URL to the file is:
"gopher://gopher.metla.fi:70/10/forest/Guides/forestry-resources.txt". It
is also available as a hypermedia version at
"http://www.metla.fi/pp/JSaa/doc/forestry-resources.html".
No e-mail delivery or anonymous ftp are available for the moment.
The printed version of the presentation given at EUFORIS'94 comes in the
form of a preliminary outline and description for the electronic
resources on forestry in the Internet. Thus, the structure of the text is
similar to a FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) or a Resource Guide. It
covers discussion groups, electronic publications, electronic archives and
databases as well as network access and navigation tools. Some publicly
available information services are listed as examples.
A more complete electronic version of this information will appear in
September at the Decision Support 2001 conference in Toronto. Updating this
kind of information is a never-ending task. It would be almost an
impossible task for one person alone to discover all changes and additions
to data and information on the net.
Thus, all comments, corrections and contributions are most
gratefully acknowledged. All additions received by the end of August will
be included. Please, send them to the current editor:
Jarmo.Saarikko@metla.fi.
