Update [2005-2-21 8:54:25 by overconvergent]:: An anonymous contributor has pointed out that the Drupal engine is used for PhysComments.
There have been two mathematics reviews services since 1940 (Mathematical Reviews, also known as MathSciNet, was set up in 1940) and the older Zentrallblatt includes mathematical information dating all the way back to 1868), but it seems that there has been no equivalent for physics.
Until now.

| A new service, PhysComments, has been set up to do for physics what the older reviews services do for mathematics. This is a scoop-style website that reviews physics articles in the arXiv.
The idea of having a review service for all parts of the arXiv seems an interesting one; I am not sure whether there would be enough competent and unbiased people who would be willing to review mathematics preprints as volunteers, but the idea seems good. |
