In order to gather input on this topic, and to educate the candidates on it, I have prepared a letter inquiring as to their positions. In order to let the candidates know that others share my interest in their positions, I am requesting that those who do please let me know that they they wish to be listed as co-signers of the letter. To join, first read the letter and then follow the link at the end to a simple form. I will ask for your name and IEEE status to pass along to the candidates, and I will collect your email address so that I may pass any responses back to you. I will also post candidate responses to the web.
Time is short.
I will post their responses as I receive them. This is six days before the 1 November 2000 deadline for the receipt of ballots. If IEEE is to continue to function as a vibrantly democratic institution, the members need to know the stance of the candidates on the most important issues we face. If you are interested in IEEE's relationship with ISTO, please participate by joining me.
