At that time we had an active delegate from Israel, Jehuda Kella if my memory is good, and he insisted not to have the TC6 meeting at Africom in Tunis as he claimed that he will nor get the visa from Tunis. I told Farouk Kamoun that I intended to apply the IFIP rules ; no TC6 meeting at a place if all the delegates are not allowed to attend and I requested from Farouk a formal letter from the Minister of Foreign Affairs making clear that every TC6 delegates will be granted a visa. Believe it or not but I got this letter. I send it to Kella but unfortunatly he was not able to attend because the Israel Governement did not allow him to go to Tunisia. To complete the picture, at the time of the apartheid the South African Computer Society signed a document indicating that they were not applying the apartheid in the Society and were allowed to continue to participate in the IFIP activities. When we hold an event in SA, the black american participants stay in the same hotel as us. Koss Koen got a visa for India for a TC6 meeting and attended it. Later on, for a TC6 meeting in Budapest I was told from Tibor that there will be no visa problem. Unfortunatly, just before starting the TC6 meeting, we learned that Koss Koen was at the Budapest airport and not allowed to enter Hungary. I refused to open the meeting without Koss and I started with the help the delegate of of Austria to organise the transfer of the meeting to Vienna. Two hours later, the TC6 meeting started in Budapest with Koss Koen with us. It not because the "ennemies" of the US have changed that I will changed my attitude. IFIP is a true international society. IEEE is a transnational society and not an international society able to define its policy independently of the policy of the US governement. Freedom of though has a price that a lot of people and societies are not ready to pay.

To WG chair(wo)men!!
by Otto Spaniol 06 Oct '04

06 Oct '04

Dear WG 6.1 - 6.11 chair(wo)men. it is about time to prepare the reports for the upcoming TC6 meeting in Bangkok. Please send your reports to me not later than October 31, 2004 in order that I can include them in the meeting documents. There is a request that event statistics should be collected (see below for details). Peter (Radford) promised to put together that information but we need most information from you - in some cases you might have to contact IFIP secretariat. It would be very helpful if you send your report for meeting 2004/2 in Bangkok *** as well as your previous report for meeting 2004/1 in Athens *** also to Peter <Peter.Radford(a)logicacmg.com>. Please ensure that the copy of your Athens report reaches Peter no later than Oct. 15, 2004. Best wishes Otto ------------------------------------------ Procedure for collecting the TC6 event statistics (as proposed by Augusto Casaca): 1. Insert the names of the conferences that have occurred since the last update. You get those names from the TC6 calendar (the example table for 2003 is attached). 2. The event number is taken from the ERF approved by IFIP. 3. City, Country, Type, Year are taken from the TC6 calendar. 4. Number of submissions, number of accepted papers, percentage, number of tracks and number of registered attendees are provided by the WG chair under which the conference is organized. This is information that the WG chair has compulsorily to include in his report according to the present format of the WG reports for the TC6 meeting. Sometimes you can get the information in advance if you ask the WG chair. 5. The publisher is known from the TC6 calendar and/or the WG chair. 6. The event proceeds are obtained from the IFIP Secretariat. <christine.mckenzie(a)IFIP.or.at> or <eduard.dundler(a)IFIP.or.at> 7. The book royalties and books sold are obtained from Kluwer reports to IFIP meetings. In case of Springer you get them from the IFIP Secretariat. This needs to be updated every year as the publisher continues to sell books every year.
