Dear members of IFIP GA,

before leaving for my annual sailing trip into the Denish and Swedish Baltic sea, I wish to remind TC chairs and member society representatives to send their report for inclusion in GA binders to Dorothy, and for storage on IFIP website to Roger.

Concerning our secretariat, you have received the message that a convivial solution has been found to end Plamen Nedkov´s work. EB is preparing the job description according to which we will look for a new head of the secretariat. Roger will welcome any suggestion and take them duly into account. At this time, I am very happy to inform you that Dorothy (as interim head of secretariat) and Brigitte (now on vacation for 2 weeks) manage the secretariat very well and prepare everything for GA@Vilnius which will be locally supported by our host and Lithuanian representative, Renaldas Gudauskas. May I also ask you to book your hotel soon and to send the related information to Roger? Thanx for your cooperation.

Finally, the process for a new publication contract has been started. I have nominated a small Publication Contract Committee, including Basie van Solms (chair), Prins Ralston, Roger Johnson and a representative of TC chairs (to be named). The status will be reported in GA.

I am now off for the Baltic, and I have no Internet connectivity. But secretariat and EB know how to reach me in urgent cases.

Best wishes, and take care: Klaus (July 26, 2003)
