[GOAL] MDPI grows all the way to 2018. Happy New Year!

[Shu-Kun Lin]

Dear Colleagues,

The year 2018 find you all healthy and well! Happy New Year!
We just released our 2017 entry for the brief history at 
http://www.mdpi.com/about/history#2017 website. MDPI has an 52.5% 
increase in number of peer reviewed papers: 35840. If all the editorial 
material and proceedings pieces are counted, the number is 37722, see: 
http://www.mdpi.com/search?year_from=2017&year_to=2017

In order to maintain fast and high quality publishing service, we 
started to do almost everything in house including XML conversion, 
instead of outsourcing, and the number of full time employees increased 
even faster, now 1000 in total.

Cheers!

Best regards,
Shu-Kun
