- The Manifesto on architectural education that Tony van Raat and I published in 2000 is an interesting document of the state of architectural education and architectural profession at the end of the 1990s. The message of the Manifesto was that architecture schools should teach architecture students to design buildings. This obvious and banal assumption caused a massive uproar and attacks from New Zealand architecture academics. We were told that “there is no going back to the certainties of the 1970s” and that “it is dangerous to shackle architecture to buildings”. The fact that at the end of 1990s the very suggestion that architecture schools should teach students to design buildings was so massively controversial certainly tells us much about about our contemporary professional environment as well. The students who went through architecture schools whose tutors did not want to shackle architecture to buildings are now designing our cities.

- The letter discusses (on the basis of my personal experience) situations in which it is a journal editor takes years to decide about the publication of an article.
