[Sigsti-l] The delay in the agenda distribution....

[Joe Hourcle]

For those who were at the Annual Meeting, you know that there were issues 
in getting wireless access, and so, I wasn't reading my e-mail.

What most people probably don't know is that the mailing list is paranoid
about attachments, and won't deliver messages with them unless someone 
approves the message.

So, Phil _did_ send the agenda out before the meeting, but I held it up, 
because I didn't approve it.  (and, in some cases, the mailing list ends 
up stripping off the attachments anyway, due to other security settings)

I've released it, so that the people who weren't there can read it, if 
they so desire, before the minutes are made available.

ps. I'm also going to try to do a post-meeting newsletter, with SIG-STI
     relevent information for those who didn't make the annual meeting.  If
     you have anything to contribute, please let me know.  (and, if you
     have stuff from other sources, I'll take that, too.)

     [I'm hoping that those people who helped to organize SIG-sponsored
     sessions can give a report and/or links to the presentations]

pps. And, for those who weren't at the meeting, and haven't figured it
      out yet, I was re-elected communications officer.   And
      thanks/congrats to John D'Ignazio for agreeing to run for
      chair-elect, as it meant I didn't have to do it.
