Dear all,
there is a request for the nomination of people who should get
an OSA (outstanding service award); see below.
Proposals for such nominations are welcome.
Best regards
Otto
-------------------------------------------------------------
Dear TC Chairs,
This award was created in 1987 by the IFIP General Assembly. As you can
see in the rules (Standing Orders 6.2) the prime responsibility for
nominations lies with TC Chairmen.
On behalf of the chairman of the Internal Awards Committee Roger Johnson
I invite you to nominate members of your TC or its Working Groups whose
contribution to IFIP you wish to recognize and who you deem eligible to
receive the OSA.
Please send me details of your nominee(s) prior to our GA meeting in
Gaborone including information about how they satisfy the selection
criteria.
You will see that the annual number of awards is limited to twenty. In
the unlikely event that the total number of submissions exceeds that
number it is the responsibility of the IAC to rank them in priority
sequence using the information you provide and hence select the award
winners.
The list will be reviewed by the Internal Awards Committee Chair with
you immediately before the GA for any final adjustments and then
submitted to the GA for formal approval.
The OSA certificates will be signed by the President and yourself and
subsequently presented to the winners in the way you deem to be most
appropriate.
A list of OSA Award holders is available at
http://www.ifip.or.at/bulletin/b_osa.htm
Best regards
Eduard Dundler

Dear friens,
Following the commitment agreed in the last meeting, please find
attached the message I have snd to Harry Perros.
Best regards

-------- Original Message --------
Subject: consierations about your resign
Date: Fri, 27 May 2005 12:57:01 +0200
From: Ramon Puigjaner <putxi(a)uib.es>
To: Harry Perros <hp(a)csc.ncsu.edu>
Dear Harry,
I am writing to you as Vice-Chairman and on behalf of the IFIP TC6.
In the last meeting held three weeks ago in Toronto, your message of
resignation as chairman of WG6.10 was discussed.
The general feeling of the TC6 members was to ask you to reconsider your
decision and that you continue chairing WG6.10. Your efforts to organize
and promote WG6.10 were recognized and it was understood that a good
deal of the problems that lead to your decision to resign, were problems
concerning most WGs. During the meeting the publication policy that the
TC6 should apply on the coming events (see attached) was discussed
extensively. I think that this touches on issues that bothered you and
TC6 is decided to address them and that this publication policy should
provide you an answer to several of your complaints.
I hope that you will continue to work with us and to push ahead the
research in the networking area.
Best regards
Ramon
