Just to expand a little for those who are not familiar with the SIG
format at all - you don't really need to flash a membership card in
order to participate. You don't even need to be a member of MCN to
participate in a SIG, although we sure hope it encourages you to
become a member. Most of the SIGs business is done at the annual MCN
conference, when the SIGs hold meetings to discuss projects for the
year and plan sessions for next year's conference of particular
interest to the SIG. All other business happens on e-mail on the main
MCN list (this one!). If you have a message you'd like to flag for
special attention of a particular SIG, just add the SIG to the
beginning of your Subject line, such as in DM SIG: blah blah (DM for
Digital Media). And, as Rob pointed out, if in doubt, alway contact
the SIG chair...
Cheers,
Guenter

Hi all,
Thanks for asking, Jacquie. (Since this may be of interest to other
mcn-l subscribers, I'll keep this reply on-list.) To join any of the
SIGs, one simply contacts its chair--and that's it! These two SIGs'
contacts are:
Standards & CV: Layna White, [email protected]
Digital Media: Guenter Waibel, [email protected]
Other SIG chairs' email addresses may be found on the MCN site.
Hope this helps,
Rob

Perhaps you can advise, how one might sign on as a member of these and other
SIGs? Thanks! Jacquie Gijssen

Hi everybody,
FYI, here are two MCN SIG updates based on proposals developed at
SIG meetings in Toronto and recently approved by the MCN Board:
1. The Digital Imaging SIG has been renamed the Digital Media SIG
to encompass work with audio and video as well as still images.
(Guenter Waibel is continuing on as the renamed SIG's chair.)
2. Mary Elings of U.C. Berkeley is the Standards & Controlled
Vocabulary SIG's new co-chair (replacing me) along with Layna
White, who is continuing on as the SIG's other co-chair.
These changes may take a little while to appear on the MCN web
site and elsewhere, but they're actually in effect as of now.
