Here is Jennifer's notice:
Dear colleagues,
There is lots of news for you about administrative matters in the
CNC/CIE, but I will start with the most important. We had some
communications difficulties this summer, so please accept our apologies
if information passed you by.
1. You are invited to the 9th Biannual Joint Meeting of the CIE/USA and CNC/CIE at the California Lighting Technologies Center in Davis, California, Nov. 7-8, 2013. There is a welcome reception on the evening of Nov. 6, technical
day on Nov. 7, and business meetings on Nov. 8. The web site for the event is here: http://cltc.ucdavis.edu/event/ 9th-biannual-joint-meeting- cieusa-and-cnccie.
Registration and hotel information will be online shortly.
The November 8
meeting is the Annual General Meeting of the CNC/CIE. If you want to
take part in that meeting but can't travel to Davis, we will make
arrangements for teleconferencing. Please contact me at jennifer.veitch@nrc-cnrc.gc.ca
if you want to take part remotely.
2. We have a new URL for the CNC/CIE: http://www.cnc-cie.ca. Among other recent updates, you can see the preliminary program for the joint meeting here: http://en.cnc-cie.ca/images/ 2013%20CIE-USA%20CNC-CIE% 20Joint%20Annual%20Meeting% 20Program_20131004.pdf.
3. We have an interim Secretary, Mr. Bill Neil. Bill will
stand in for the Secretary, Réjean Baribeau, while he is on leave. Bill
is a Technical Officer in the Thermometry, Radiometry, and Photometry
Group at NRC Measurement Science and Standards.
4. We have a new and stable e-mail address for CNC/CIE correspondence: CNC-CIE-Secretariat@nrc-cnrc. gc.ca.
Please use this e-mail to send messages to the
Secretary, or to ask him to forward mail to any member of the CNC/CIE.
We have set this up such that other NRC staff who are active in the
CNC/CIE may also monitor the mailbox in case the Secretary is away or
unavailable.
