I should clarify something from my previous post: I am not aware of the board actually voting on whether or not to hold something in Arizona. I was told by Ellie Young that the Board would likely never approve a meeting in Arizona because of the political implications. Speaking informally with Mike O'Dell and Ed Gould at the last SEDMS gave me no indication otherwise. BTW, Hawaii is also out as a meeting spot....even though it is cheaper for me to fly to Hawaii than it is to fly to NY or Florida, and I can get rooms there for about $85 per night per person (based on double occupancy). Plus, it is closer to the people in Japan and Australia who have been coming to our Symposium. That isn't a political issue, but it is also unfortunate. -- Gene Spafford NSF/Purdue/U of Florida Software Engineering Research Center, Dept. of Computer Sciences, Purdue University, W.
