One of them, MIC Electrodynamics, closed out in the summer of 2008. Proposals for a new focus group, to start at the summer 2009 workshop, are solicited. Please refer to the GEM bylaws (http://aten.igpp.ucla.edu/gemwiki/index.php/GEM_Bylaws) for the required format, and send proposals to J.Raeder@unh.edu. Proposals will be posted on the GEM wiki page for open discussion, and there will be a session at the pre-AGU GEM workshop to give proposers an opportunity to present their proposals and to discuss their ideas. Later that evening the GEM steering committee will discuss the proposals and decide on which ones to adopt. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |To subscribe GEM Messengers, send an e-mail to | | with the following command in the body of your e-mail message: | | subscribe gem | |To remove yourself from the mailing list, the command is: | | unsubscribe gem | | | |To broadcast a message to the GEM community, please contact Peter Chi at | | | |Please use plain text as the format of your submission. | | | |URL of GEM Home Page: http://aten.igpp.ucla.edu/GemWiki | |Workshop Information: http://www.cpe.vt.edu/gem/index.html | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
