Morphisms between spaces of leaves viewed as fractions

Abstract

Reprint of a 1989 paper including minor corrections of misprints. Added comments (11 pages) about later related papers in the literature concerning comparison of Gabriel-Zisman calculus of (right) fractions and the use of generalized morphims in the sense of Haefliger-Skandalis-Hilsum for inverting differentiable equivalences between Lie groupoids.
