Dear Otto, Peter, deepak
To my recollection, the discussion regarding the publication of IM proceedings is not clearly reflected in the section related to WG6.6 of the minutes as well as in Action Point (AP62/11).
My understanding of the discussion during the Athens meeting is to negotiate with IEEE Communications Society (not the Computer Society as reported) the publication of IM proceedings and its inclusion in the IEEE digital library. For this IFIP will give up the copyright for IM and in return will receive the royalties IFIP usually receives from Kluwer.
Based on this outcome, I have initiated the negotiation with IEEE ComSoc and we are in the process of drafting an agreement with this respect to be submitted to both IFIP and ComSoc for approval.
Regards
Raouf
