petition for SIGMETRICS

[Cassidy Sugimoto]

We would like to propose that SIGMETRICS become an active SIG within
ASIS&T, in addition to the virtual presence.  In order to achieve this
status, we need to receive endorsement from 50 ASIS&T members stating
that they would be interested in the creation of such a SIG.

We believe that the SIGMETRICS is an active and important community
within ASIS&T and we would like to see the interests of this community
represented in ASIS&T governance.  Becoming an active SIG would allow
a greater voice for our members and more opportunities for relevant
programming.  It may also serve to recruit and retain members with
metric-related interests.

If you would be willing to sign a petition for the creation of
SIGMETRICS as an active SIG, please send an email to
cassidysugimoto at gmail.com.  KT Vaughan, SIG Cabinet Director, will
accept these emails as evidence of support.

In addition, if you would be interested in serving as an officer of
this SIG, please let us know!
