Re: Website design/ais foundation

[Bob Hollingworth <cyberiris@cablespeed.com>]

Bob -- from the Foundation's viewpoint it would be helpful and 
appropriate to have some mention on the AIS website. At the least a 
link to our website would be appreciated. In particular it is often 
confusing for newcomers to discover that both AIS and the Foundation 
fund research on irises independently. We have done a much better job 
of coordinating that recently, but it still seems that we could 
develop a joint application and funding system that would help 
eliminate confusion entirely. The planning and operation of the 
memorial library activity based on the DuBose funding is another area 
where coordinated communication and action is obviously necessary. We 
need to start addressing that soon. Thanks for thinking of us! Bob Hollingworth
