After a long break, we are back with some very interesting research announcements and an open problem which is one of the most difficult, long lasting, and important problems in the field. A major change in this bulletin is that from now on it will usually not appear monthly, but more close to quarterly. Special announcements (if urgent) will be made by text emails. Contributions to the next issue are, as always, welcome.

This is the seventh issue of this bulletin, featuring a new form as well as a concise list of past open problems.
A surprising number of new results in "core" SPM in the last quarter of 2007, and some other beautiful fundamental results are announced.
We announce the solution of 4+21+1/2 (!) problems posed in earlier issues of the SPM Bulletin; the ``1/2'' standing for a ``consistently yes'' answer of Zdomsky to the last issue's Problem of the Month.
This festive issue concludes the civilian year 2008 with details on a special issue of Topology and its Applications dedicated to SPM, and with a quite large list of research announcements.
This is the first issue of a semi-formal bulletin dealing with Selection Principles in Mathematics (SPM) -- this field deals with all sorts of studies of diagonalization arguments, especially in topology (covering properties, sequences of covers, etc.) and infinite combinatorics (cardinal characteristics of the continuum), and their applications to other areas of mathematics (function spaces, game theory, group theory, etc.)
This is the second issue of the SPM Bulletin (SPM stands for "Selection Principles in Mathematics"). The first issue is math.GN/0301011 and contains some background and details.
33rd issue of a bulletin dedicated to research on selective properties in mathematics.
This issue contains announcements of articles on: The Pytkeev property; Partial order embeddings; Resolvability; Singular density; P(w)/fin and the Calkin algebra; Everywhere meagre and everywhere null sets; almost disjoint families; forcing axioms; Splitting families; Sacks Reals; unconditionally closed and algebraic sets in groups; Stratifiability; Dissipated Compacta; partition relations; pi-bases; covering by translates of a compact nullsets; and a new Problem of the Issue.
This is the 30th issue of this bulletin, dedicated to mathematical selection principles and related areas. Now in a concise format.
Among the many papers announced here, a recent series of papers of Franklin Tall on selective properties (SPM) is noteworthy.
In this issue we announce a fascinating series of works on the comparison of various types of convergence of sequences of functions. Some of these properties are provably related to some of the properties which were introduced in the earlier issues of the SPM Bulletin, and many problems remain open. Section 2, written by Lev Bukovský, contains a brief survey of some of the major open problems in this area. This issue gives the first example of the importance of the transmission of knowledge between the recipients of this bulletin: One of the announcements implies a solution to one of the probl…
This issue contains a number of abstracts of papers directly related to selection principles, some of which presented at the conference SPMC2012, and the announcement of the solution of Malyhin's Problem.
This issue of the SPM Bulletin announces two conferences which are of interest to anyone working in SPM or general topology. In the second announced conference it is planned to have a significant part devoted to SPM. Those who are interested in participating should contact Ljubisa D. R. Kocinac at lkocinac@ptt.yu Kocinac is a very active mathematician in the field of SPM. We announce here one of his most recent works. The first issues of this bulletin, contain general information (first issue), basic definitions, research announcements, and open problems (all issues).
1. A Wikipedia entry on topological games 2. On a fragment of the universal Baire property for sigma^1_2 sets 3. The coarse classification of homogeneous ultra-metric spaces 4.

This issue contains, in addition to the usual contents, a special festive announcement: A book. This book by Banakh and Zdomsky seems to be the first in a planned series by these authors. We believe that the book will become a cornerstone in many future mathematical investigations, in particular in the field of infinite-combinatorial topology. The book's preliminary version is available online, as seen in the announcement, and the readers of the SPM Bulletin are encouraged to take a look and make comments. Zdomsky has also made two detailed contributions to this issue. This is the ideal form o…

*** Note the comment above *** This is a special issue dedicated to the announcement of Shelah's recent solution of the Minimal Tower problem, one of the oldest and most important problems in infinite combinatorics which also motivated some new studies in SPM (see fourth issue of this bulletin). We give some background and personal perspectives on the problem and its solution. We decided not to include additional research announcements in this issue, so to let them draw the attention they deserve in the coming issue. This issue also contains an interesting new problem which is related to the M…

In the year 2014, the field of selection principles found its way into several additional, fascinating mathematical realms. The field enters the consensus as a mainstream part of set theory and topology, and as a promising direction for young researchers that are well trained in these fields. Some of the interesting developments in the field during 2014 are reported in this issue.

With the approaching TOPOSYM'16 (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.
