Dear Avner and other list members,

I was at the official opening of the Feyerabend archive in Konstanz, last
October at the event of the Conference of the German Philosophical Society.
The archive contains a large portion of Feyerabend's notes, letters,
personal documents, photographs, and books he annotated with comments while
reading, as well as his computer with all documents found on it. Some of
the relevant material is still in the possession of Grazia
Borrini-Feyerabend, but is likely to be added some time in the (remote)
future.

About the biography: there is, of course, Feyerabend's autobiography,
"Killing Time", published by the University of Chicago Press, ISBN
0-226-24531-4. I do not think anyone is currently writing a Feyerabend
biography. If so, I would have probably heard about it. It would be a major
project as the author would have to interview many people worldwide who
have known him. If you are considering writing such a biography you might
want to contact Susan Abrams of the University of Chicago Press to find out
whether they might be interested in publishing it. And obviously the first
person to contact Grazia Borrini, who is a member of this list.

Bert
