A new issue of the new electronic journal BAYESIAN ANALYSIS has been published at http://ba.stat.cmu.edu. This issue of BA features a paper on spatial quantile regression by Kristian Lum and Alan Gelfand, which provides a new model for spatial data with covariates. Additional perspective appears in discussions by Rajarshi Guhaniyogi and Sudipto Banerjee, by Nan Lin and Chao Chang, and by Marco Ferreira. This issue also contains other fine articles in nonparametric and parametric modeling. We hope you will enjoy the issue, and as always we welcome your submissions at http://ba.stat.cmu.edu/submit/ The June 2012 issue includes the following articles: 2012, Volume 07, Number 02, pp. 235--502 * Spatial Quantile Multiple Regression Using the Asymmetric Laplace Process, by Kristian Lum and Alan Gelfand, pp. 235 - 258, posted online 2012-01-12, DOI:10.1214/12-BA708 - Comment on Article by Lum and Gelfand, by Rajarshi Guhaniyogi and Sudipto Banerjee, pp. 259 - 262, posted online 2012-05-22, DOI:10.1214/12-BA708A - Comment on Article by Lum and Gelfand, by Nan Lin and Chao Chang, pp. 263 - 270, posted online 2012-05-22, DOI:10.1214/12-BA708B - Comment on Article by Lum and Gelfand, by Marco A.

Its editors are Ming-Hui Chen, Kate Cowles, David Dunson, David Heckerman, Valen Johnson, Antonietta Mira, Sonia Petrone, Bruno Sanso, Mark Steel, and Kert Viele. Herbie Lee is Editor-in-Chief, Alyson Wilson is Managing Editor, Kary Myers is Production Editor, and Pantelis Vlachos is System Managing Editor. Bayesian Analysis seeks to publish a wide range of articles that demonstrate or discuss Bayesian methods in some theoretical or applied context. The journal welcomes submissions involving presentation of new computational and statistical methods; reviews, criticism, and discussion of existing approaches; historical perspectives; description of important scientific or policy application areas; case studies; and methods for experimental design, data collection, data sharing, or data mining. Evaluation of submissions is based on importance of content and effectiveness of communication.
