Now then, Doug is Chairman of the TAEC and several of us either chair or co-chair many other committees.

It strikes me that with the level of demand being shown by the industry at large, there is a real NEED for a new TechNet Members Handbook (IPC-J-STD-Rm101). This should feature the latest developments in the Periodic Table According to The Outstanding Emperor - or PTATOE. 

We all meet in Dallas in October - and even the majority of the Japanese industry will be attending at the same time - so we could really get things kicked-off. 

I am sure that the FEQAB Chairman, Dave Hillman, has copies of all of the submissions by our Emperor, all carefully filed in case of any future disputes? 

Let us therefore collect and begin to collate events that each Technetter feels worthy of submission to this new tome?

All we need at this stage is:

A Chairing Editor, Dewey Whittaker
The FEQAB
A Reviewing Submissions Organising League Executive or A.R.S.O.L.E.
IPC Liaison, Disputes Resolution Inspection Panel D.R.I.P. 
A meeting date and time

Views?
