Dear SIGAda Members,
SIGAda Extended Executive Committee (EEC),
SIGAda Working Groups,
Team-Ada,
Past Recipients, and
Members of the Ada Community:
On Wednesday, 17 November 2004, the 2004 SIGAda Awards will be presented in
a special morning plenary session at the SIGAda 2004 conference in Atlanta,
Georgia. (See http://www.acm.org/sigada/conf/sigada2004/ if you have
somehow missed announcements of this year's annual SIGAda international
conference.)
We welcome your nominations of deserving recipients.
The ACM SIGAda Awards recognize individuals and organizations who have made
outstanding contributions to the Ada community and to SIGAda. The two
categories of awards are:
(1) Outstanding Ada Community Contribution Award
-- For broad, lasting contributions to Ada technology & usage.
(2) ACM SIGAda Distinguished Service Award
-- For exceptional contributions to SIGAda activities & products.
Please consider who should be nominated this year. You may nominate a
person for either or both awards, and as many people as you think worthy.
One or more awards will be made in both categories.
Please visit http://www.acm.org/sigada/exec/awards/awards.html#Recipients
and peruse the names of past winners. This may help you think about the
measure of accomplishment that is appropriate. You may be aware of people
who have made substantial contributions that have not yet been acknowledged.
Nominate them. Consider what you believe to be the best developments in the
Ada community or SIGAda in the last year; the last 5 years; since Ada's
inception. Who was responsible? Nominate them.
Please note that anyone who has received either of the two awards remains
eligible for the other. Perhaps there is an outstanding SIGAda volunteer
who has won our Distinguished Service Award and who has also made impactful
contributions to the advance of Ada technology, or visa versa. Nominate him
or her!
The nomination form is at the end of this message and on the SIGAda website
at http://www.acm.org/sigada/exec/awards/awards.html. (You need to visit
this website to see past award winners' names, and also a picture of the
statuette which is the award among other things, so you don't nominate
someone who has already won an award in a category.) You may also submit
nominations on-line at:
http://www.acm.org/sigada/cgi-bin/ICRS-Register.cgi?Awards
The ACM SIGAda Awards Committee, comprised of volunteers who have previously
won an award, will determine this year's recipients from your nominations.
Call our attention to the people who are most deserving, by nominating them.
And please nominate by OCTOBER 15!
Your participation in the nominations process will help maintain the
prestige and honor of these awards.
Thank you,
Currie Colket
Chair ACM SIGAda
