Sorry. I jumped the gun. I've had many questions from SIGs who are eager to
sign up NOW!!
The form is not yet activated as I need to supply emails to Jan. So no
worries that you've missed anything.
I'll resend a notice when the form is live and am writing to Jan (who is
copied here - when will the program be available so SIGs can sign up with
the knowledge of when their programs are scheduled). I know poster judging
just concluded - is there a target date?
