Dear All,
During GA 2002 in Montreal we said that a new Delivery Co. project will follow "The Day of the President" http://www.ifip.or.at/secretariat/pres_comb.pdf
Now we proudly announce the NEXT blockbuster series as project "Visions from the IT Engine Room". This project takes our series of interviews to the "IFIP Engine Room", to borrow a term from a past president, with the intention to contribute to a more profound understanding of IFIP's TCs, their major activities, challenges and successes and their visions for the future.
The current IFIP TC Chairs are in the hot seat to give their opinion and visions by answering 3 questions from the Delivery Co. concerning significant developments and activities of their TCs, activities with significant societal/economic impact and technical issues they find important for IFIP to address. The individual interviews will be posted at http://www.ifip.or.at/secretariat/tcvisions.htm and the full collection will be published by the Delivery Co. when the project is completed.
We kick-off the series with our interview with Professor GIORGIO AUSIELLO [IT], TC 1 Chair (1996 - 2002) which is posted at

Giorgio is currently in the middle of an e-ballot to choose a successor and we are grateful he found the time to respond.
Enjoy,
The Delivery Co.
