I have to agree with Barbara.

Although some of the chapters have active webmasters , MANY seem not to be
updating their material.  Links to websites might be sufficient for the
larger chapters, useless for the smaller ones.

Thanks so much, Bill (Mr. Ham-Op)
Thanks to all of my fellow Designers (very fine folk, indeed)

This is exactly what I needed. And now, I can contact any of you,
through the links you supplied, Bill.

Dear Andy (our fearless, gentleman leader),
In reply to your questions:

How many of the subscribers to this Forum would like to see more detail
about Designers Council affairs, progress and thinking?
MOST OF US, PLEASE

How many would like to see Chapter reports circulated on this Forum?
MOST OF US, PLEASE

Include your own opinions if you would like to add to this discussion.
MOST OF US, PLEASE

If there's enough groundswell, I'll talk to the Exec and see how we can
implement it, then make a recommendation to Jean Hebeisen and Christ
Poulsen.
YES, PLEASE.

In response to Roger and Devon:
(Yes, and Yes.  However, instead of distributing reports via the forum,
would it be possible to just provide a link to a web address/page, where
more active content counld be placed or linked?  Along with the link
would be a thumbnail sketch of what's contained there.)
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE EVERYTHING ON A FORUM. THEN WE CAN PICK AND CHOOSE
WHAT WE WANT TO READ AND ABSORB.
BECAUSE......
OUR CHAPTER NO LONGER HAS A WEB MASTER AND THERE IS NOTHING UP TO DATE
TO LINK TO IN HOUSTON. WE ARE STRUGGLING TO STAY AFLOAT.
WITHOUT SUSY WEBB, I AM SURE THAT WE WOULD BE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA.
......THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH, SUSY.

In response to Christi,
THANKS SO MUCH FOR RESPONDING. YOU GIVE ME A GLIMMER OF HOPE THAT
SOMEONE UP THERE CARES.

Barbara in Houston, CID and loving it.

Hi Barbara,

There was a presentation made via telephone conference and by
downloading a
pdf file awhile back in January of this year that was put on for the
Chapter
representatives entitles 2005Chapterpresentation.pdf. We listened to
Dieter
do the presentation and changed the screens on our computers while he
spoke.

In that presentation there is a ORGANIZATION CHART of sorts that they
used
to give an overview of the organization and its relationship to the IPC
Board of Directors... etc.. I put a screenshot of that on my website
where
you can view it. Just click the link below...

http://www.pcbwizards.com/IPCDC1.htm


To answer the rest of your inquiry,

Denny McGuirk is the current President of the IPC
http://www.ipc.org/stafflist1.asp#Exe

Jean Hebeisen is the Director of Professional Development for the IPC
http://www.ipc.org/stafflist1.asp#pro

Christi Poulsen is the Administrative assistant for Continuing Education
http://www.ipc.org/stafflist1.asp#pro

Nilesh Naik is one of the members of the Board of Directors of the IPC
http://www.ipc.org/BOD.asp


The Executive committee of the DC meets with Jean and Christi and Nelish
at
our semi-annual meetings and discuss the issues regarding the designers
council and its activities and programs. We also keep in touch via
e-mail
and there are teleconferences and the like from time to time.

Jean and Christi have dual roles in the IPC and help run the
administration
of the designer's council. (No small task indeed)

http://dc.ipc.org/scontacts/contacthome.htm

The current members of the Executive Committee are posted on the DC
website
as well

http://dc.ipc.org/about/execboard.asp

You will note that most of them are also serving on the Education
Committee
as well

http://dc.ipc.org/about/educomm.asp


I hope that helps put things a little more clearly... So you know you
can
contact any of us via e-mail with suggestions and concerns and most all
of
us are more than willing to help... you have a good executive committee
and
education committee working for your Designers council fellow members
and
friends and they contribute a lot of their time and energy towards
making
the DC a more valuable asset to each and every member and the designer
community as a whole.

Best regards,

Bill Brooks - KG6VVP

<snip>
I would like to see an Organizational Chart that shows how the IPC works
and where the local Councils fit into the IPC Organization.
Something that tells me who Denny, Jean, Christi, and Nilesh are.  Those
names have no faces and mean little to me until I understand their
positions.
