The PACE Newsletter started in 1990, and now has over 170 subscribers in 27 countries. Many thanks go to all of you who have been sending in contributions over the years.

This 10th issue contains the usual reports and information about new publications, theses and conferences dealing with the use of pidgins, creoles and minority dialects in education. But in this issue, we have three special longer reports from three different countries and an article about adult literacy programs in Vanuatu using Bislama (Melanesian Pidgin).

Special thanks to all the contributors for this issue. Please pass it around and urge people to send in contributions for the next issue in 2000!
