EC News -

First, In September, the Executive Committee met in Miami, FL, for our annual strategy and planning meeting. Alain Chesnais, ACM SIGGRAPH President, started the weekend off with a talk at the monthly meeting of the Fort Lauderdale Chapter held at Florida Atlantic University. Other EC members were present for pre-and-post event socializing.

For the last two years of strategy meetings, we have been working on ideas around the Graphics HUB, developing and supporting an online community. At this year's meeting, we moved into implementation mode. After identifying our key strengths as a group, we formulated an action plan to carry us through the end of the year. Look for some exciting new additions to our web site in the next few months.

And, because of our push to get the Graphics HUB in place, we have the need for a couple good volunteers. We are especially interested in folks with skills in web design, database development and web planning. If you are interested, please contact us!
