English abstract

New technology often implies progress, but it does not always bring something fundamentally new. As more and more academic disciplines become interested in the communication patterns in high energy physics as a result of to the tremendous success of arXiv, it might be worth while to recall that this communication pattern has been around for more than 40 years. New technology has, however, significantly speeded up communication and reduced its costs.
