The three special projects sponsored by Commission 27: the Information Bulletin on Variable Stars (IVBS), the Archives of Unpublished Observations of Variable Stars, and the General Catalogue of Variable Stars (GCVS) continue to serve the astronomical community. Katalin Oláh, Laszlo Szabados, András Holl, Zsolt Kővári and their colleagues have made the Bulletin available in electronic form, including back issues. In addition, Andras Holl succeeded in setting up a WWW home page for our commission. Chris Sterken and the Editorial Board strived to maintain high scientific standard of the IVBS. The Archives, under Ed Schmidt, increased to over three hundred files. Nikolai N. Samus and his co-workers published the final volume of the 4th edition of the GCVS. The Catalogue is also available electronically. All these people should be highly prized for their hard work for the IAU and astronomers at large.
