With this double issue of Technostyle, we have produced a second publication in our new format to constitute both the Spring and Fall 1994 installments of the journal.After the delays that come with transition, we can now synchronize our publications with the calendar.This issue addresses a range of topics ofrelevance to our diverse readership: studies of the relationship between discourse and power (Hom), the status and nature of written genres (Beaudet, Russell), issues of standardization of linguistic norms (Bosse-Andrieu), and certain political dimensions ofieaching technical writing (LaDuc and Schryer).With this edition we are also introducing new dimensions to Technostyle.One of these is the inclusion of reprints of note-worthy articles that have been written by CA TTW members and published elsewhere.We are very pleased to reproduce for our readers two such publications: an analysis of semantic bypassing in medical literature by Jennifer Connor (with J.T.H. Connor), and a study ofreader/writer collaboration in usability testing by Karen Schriver.These scholars have both distinguished themselves in their respective fields.This issue also initiates a conversation about our professional organization: we have included a series of pieces on the history of CA TTW, a panel debate about future directions, and a paper by one of our early members (Jennifer Connor) that essentially takes stock of the organization and those issues that have emerged as CA TTW continues to grow and change.A third component is the renewal of a former Technostyle section for our readers' responses and concerns.This "Forum" page will appear in the Spring, 1995 issue (see our invitation for comments elsewhere in this issue).
