Hi John
Yes, it is, but the TB segments are the only portions that will NOT be
picked up by the sections. Logistically, Perry's report is so long
that I would anticipate that the Sections and AIS would be looking for
ways to abbreviate (Edit) it to fit with other news that they want to
report. (Yes, I do read it from page one to 24!) (That's 48 pages of
bulletin space. OK, Brad, we'll do this one in 6 point text :-) )
On the other side of that argument - most of the sections have
memberships of less than 500 people whereas AIS readership is
something on the magnitude of 5000. One of my thoughts is to scour the
section and region publications for material that would be of general
interest to the larger membership. It could be republished for another
4500 people to read.
Now THERE is a wishy washy answer if I ever made one up!

The scary part is that I hear he is already working on another edition
of contemporary views!!
PRINT FAST, YOU SECTIONS!

Ummm, isn't the AIS Bulletin a publication for all types of irises? I
think it is fine if some of the sections pick up portions of
articles in the AIS Bulletin that pertain to their section.

Hi John
Strategically, maybe I could isolate TB portions of Perry's report
for the Bulletin and then let the sections pick up the rest
We could then refer to the website or the sections for further
information.
I know Rita is interested in the Median parts and I would guess that
the Louisiana folks would pick up on their portion.
Sounds like a plan. Everybody wins.
Thanks

Terry,
I see no reason that it Perry's article could not be on both the
website and in the bulletin (in sections probably). Not all our
readers go to the web and it is certainly of interest to bulletin
readers.

Perry writes great reviews. I have used them in the bulletin in
the past. They were so long that I had to break it up into
pieces.
He has good credibility. A very astute observer.
If you dont use it, I will.

I have put a PDF copy of Contemporary Views 2005-2006 by Perry
Dyer on the AIS Board document site.
I am planning on putting it on the AIS website (with permission
and appropriate approbation) but thought I would elicit comments
from the board, committee chairs etc.
