Re: [IEEE_ISSAA] Nominations Sought for Standards Award
Gentle People,
I forgot to mention that since I am on the HKA committee I am
prohibited from acting as nominator or endorser of anyone for the
award. If you think you are a qualified candidate you need to recruit
a nominator and endorsers, unless the nominator wants to do that.
