Dear Guy,
I do not see a problem as long as there are clear links to the IFIP and TC6 sites. I just want to be sure that every TC6 conference announces itself as an IFIP TC6 conference in its advertisement. The small amount of money involved should not be a problem. It is even easier if the organisers take it from the conference budget.
No reason to delay the procedure for FMOODS, but we can discuss it for other conferences too during our TC6 meeting in Zurich.
Best regards
Augusto

Augusto,
Recently, within the FMOODS steering committee, we discussed the possibility to "buy" Internet domain names for the conference (see below).
What is TC6's (or IFIP's) position about this?
What can I say to the FMOODS 2002 organizers?
Best regards, Guy

I agree to the idea. Regarding the property of the domain, I think it is up to IFIP to see into this issue. Guy what would be the position of IFIP ?
