BioInspired! So What? Now What!

The second quarter 2011 Participation Rebate of $51 has been credited to active members (members can see the details at Second Quarter 2011 Participation Rebate).  Thanks to their support of the BID Community, Ernst-Jan Mul and Fil Salustri will have their full membership fees returned (with a bit left over for the third quarter) while Mike Westdijk will receive almost his entire membership fee. 

The Algae Competition team has raised concerns about the current threaded forum structure - although it keeps replies associated with the parent comment, it makes following the forums online difficult.  The structure of all forums has been updated to a 'flat' structure (no threading) with the oldest comment at the top.  The subject lines of replies have been updated to provide some context.  The comment structure of other document types has not yet been changed.
