Region 3 Communications Committee Status - September 2002
Bill Ratcliff

The Region 3 Communications Committee - September 2002 is focused on
the mission "To support and facilitate more effective and seamless
communications within the Region and to Institute entities". The key
aspect of providing support involves the identification of
requirements from the other entities. This is an on-going activity
that impacts all entities within the Region and the entire Institute.

The status of the Region 3 Objectives is a work in progress stored on
Twiki at...

Please note that some of the objectives have not been started and that
the progress on others have been slow. The priority of these
objectives has not been fully determined but often is the result of
crisis / problems / "squeaky wheels".

No committee is stand alone / self contained but rather a contributor
to propelling Region 3 and the Institute, hopefully, in a common
direction with the resultant vector of our combined effort benefiting
the member, the technology and society.

The Communications Committee continues to meet synchronously (chat),
asynchronously (Newsgroups, Twiki, e-mail, web...) and you are always
invited to attend / participate. The Agenda is also a "work in
progress" and is posted...

Drop a note to me anytime... w.ratcliff@ieee.org

We are trying to "eat our own dog food".

All of the committees, areas, councils, etc are encouraged to post
your requirements for support from the Communications Committee.
